Hi Khalil,
It looks like the installation etc were successful. In order to
generate the config file run the program pvfs2-genconfig. You can find
this script in /path/to/pvfs2-source/src/apps/admin/pvfs2-genconfig
(or) /path/to/installed/pvfs2/bin/pvfs2-genconfig.
(after replacing it with your installation specific paths).
You can run it by providing the following arguments to it...
pvfs2-genconfig /etc/pvfs2/fs.conf /etc/pvfs2/server.conf
if /etc/pvfs2 does not exist, you can just create that directory. BTW:
there is no sanctity in choosing /etc/pvfs2 as the standard path for
the config file. it can be anywhere...
hope this helps you get started.
good luck
Murali

I successfully configure, make and make install pvfs2 from within /usr/src/
directory (PS2 - install)
PROBLEM:
when starting the server configuration to generate the configuration, I
cannot find the server.conf in /etc/pvfs2/ . (PS3)
