Really looks like a firewall problem to me. -- Rob

That is a little strange that you are getting a communication error on
the client side (broken pipe) without the server also seeing a
communication problem. Is there anything unusual about your
network, or
is it just a typical ethernet configuration?
You may have to turn on some verbose logging for us to get a better
idea
of what exactly is failing. On the client side, you can set the
PVFS2_DEBUGMASK environment variable to "verbose" and re-run your
pvfs2-cp command to get client side logging output to stderr.
On the server side you can enable verbose logging by changing
"EventLogging none" to "EventLogging verbose" in the fs.conf file and
restarting the server. That will generate a lot of output, so you
probably only want to leave it like that long enough to capture one
pvfs2-cp attempt.

It just says:

Shouldn't it display something regarding my previous
pvfs2-ln operation? Hmm...
My log is too simple to be a good log.

Do you see an messages in the server log? By default it should /
tmp/
pvfs2-server.log.

Hi, Rob & list,
In my test, I have two nodes called n61 and n62.
I ran my pvfs2 server on n62. When I was testing
pvfs2-cp, I tried to run it from both n61 and n62.
Both approaches gave me that pvfs2-cp failure.
As I said, only pvfs2-cp has such problem. For
pvfs2-ping and pvfs2-ls, they work well either
locally or remotely.
Interestingly, I can also do pvfs2-ln from the
client. It seems that the client (my n61) is
able to create a soft link in the server node (my n62).
I am wondering if pvfs2-cp is depending on
any specific system library which I might miss
installing in my kernel.
Briefly, here is what I am using:
Linux version 2.6.26
PowerPC405 (No FPU)
512MB DDR2
GLibc 2.9
(It looks pretty odd, I know. But it is part of
our research)
Any idea?
Ben

Hi,
Did you run this on a node other than n62?

Hi, list,
I am currently testing my pvfs2-2.8.1 installation. I posted
an error of failing to do pvfs2-ping on the list several
weeks ago. It turned out that the issue came from lack of
TCP wrapper in my kernel. Don't blame me for that because I
was doing Linux from scratch and there are lots of ambiguous
utilities to understand. :)
Now I am facing another issue during my pvfs2 testing. When I
was running pvfs2-cp, either when copying files to or from
a PVFS2 file system, it failed to receive the package and the
connection was refused.
It is a little frustrating because this testing seems quite
straightforward. Since I am doing Linux from scratch, I am
not 100% sure my kernel will be compatible with pvfs2-2.8.1.
I assume that people have tested pvfs2 with various mainstream
distributions but not with a build-all-components-manually
kernel before releasing it.
I have no problem running pvfs2-ls, pvfs2-rm, pvfs2-mkdir,
pvfs2-ln and pvfs2-fsck. So I am struggling to know whether
this issue is from my kernel or from pvfs2 itself. I attached
the error message hoping that someone can give me a guide.
Here is my error message when using pvfs2-cp:
