Hi Sam,

I am using a 256 MB file on a machine with only 1 GB of memory. The server sees the timeouts after ~60 seconds and the client is much longer (and may be 5 minutes). I will time it on my next run.

Hi Scott,

How big is the test file you're copying? tcp doesn't hang with two pvfs2-cp on a 40MB, but I should probably try something larger. :-) The flow timeouts on the server are set to 5 minutes. Are you waiting that long before seeing those messages in the log?

Hi all,

Here is a little more detail. On the server, after the stall I only see:

[E 01/11 11:28] job_time_mgr_expire: job time out: cancelling flow operation, job_id: 362. [E 01/11 11:28] fp_multiqueue_cancel: flow proto cancel called on 0x8197828 [D 01/11 11:28] fp_multiqueue_cancel: called on already completed flow; doing nothing.

There are no timeouts in BMI.

On the client, I eventually see:

[E 11:32:21.004481] job_time_mgr_expire: job time out: cancelling bmi operation, job_id: 41. [D 11:32:21.004649] PINT_thread_mgr_bmi_cancel: trying to cancel opid: 42, ptr: 0x810c5ac.

[3] + segmentation fault (core dumped) pvfs2-cp /scratch/atchley/ test /mnt/pvfs2/test-${I}

Since the receives are pending (posted, not completed), the cancel should succeed. It is probably a bug in my code that causes the segfaults. Unfortunately, the core files are not usable:

% gdb pvfs2-cp core.28788
"core.28788" is not a core dump: File format not recognized

File disagrees:

% file core.28788
core.28788: ELF 32-bit LSB core file Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), SVR4-style, SVR4-style, from 'pvfs2-cp'

If the other BMI methods do not hang, then I need to keep digging.

Hi all,

I am simply running two pvfs2-cp processes at the same time to see how everything works. For some reason, the copies start but do not finish. Eventually, I see timeouts in BMI but not in bmi_mx. Before I spend too much time on this, can other methods run two copies at the same time?

$ for I in 1 2 ; do
pvfs2-cp test /mnt/pvfs2/test-${I} &
done

Thanks,

Scott
