Re: [lustre-discuss] mdt mounting error

There is no specific requirement in Lustre to create multiple MGS; one MGS will often suffice for many file systems in a subnet. You should have one MGT, it can be mounted on more than one MGS (but only one at a time). You need something in place that prevents it being mounted more than once.

I don't think you use the --servicenode option when formatting an mgs-only disk, or the --fsname option. Neither of those apply for an mgs-only with multiple filesystems. My command for a zfs backed mgs was: /*mkfs.lustre --mgs --backfstype=zfs MGT/mgt*/ Then I created 2 different sets of OST

So apparently the issue is indeed with the combination of using a Lustre 2.10.1 router with 2.8 servers and clients. Downgrading the router to 2.9 seems to have solved the problem. (I can't run 2.8 on the router, because I'm running MOFED 4.1 for the Mellanox ConnectX-5, and I can't get 2.8 to bui

Is the MDT being mounted on the same node as the MGT? The ordering of the servicenode flags is (or was) significant for the first time the target is mounted, and if the services will run on different nodes, the servicenode parameters on the MDT should be swapped. And confirm that the /mdt direct
