This is not really correct. Lustre clients can handle the addition of OSTs to a running filesystem. The MGS will register the new OSTs, and the clients will be notified by the MGS that the OSTs have been added, so no need to unmount the clients during this process. Cheers, Andreas On Feb 21,

Hi Peter, Somewhat related: where should we be looking for the commits leading up to 2.12.1? The b2_12 branch ( https://git.whamcloud.com/?p=fs/lustre-release.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/b2_12) has no activity since 2.12.0 was released. I assumed that if 2.12 is a LTS branch like 2.10, there wou

2.12.0 is relatively new. It does have some improvements over 2.10.x (notably Data on MDT) but if those are not an immediate requirement then using 2.10.6 would be a proven and more comnservative option. 2.12.51 is an interim development build for 2.13 and should absolutely not be used for produ

Thomas, Yeah, that's possible, though I don't think people are regularly running in to this. FWIW, I think the intention was to allow extension of layouts component by component. An incomplete layout can have components added to it. I can conceive of someone using an incomplete layout to en

Hello Patrick, Thank you for the quick reply. No, I have no particular use-case in mind, I'm just playing around with PFL. If this is currently not properly supported, a quick fix could be to prevent the user from creating such incomplete layouts? Regards, Thomas On 2/22/19 5:33 PM, Patrick

Thomas, This is expected, but it's also something we'd like to fix - See LU-9341. Basically, append tries to instantiate the layout from 0 to infinity, and it fails because your layout is incomplete (ie doesn't go to infinity). May I ask why you're creating a file with an incomplete layout?
