Re: [lustre-discuss] A question about lctl lfsck

2019-07-04 Thread Andreas Dilger
You can use "lctl dk" to dump the kernel debug log on the MDS/OSS nodes, and grep for the LFSCK messages, but if there are lots of messages the kernel logs would not be enough to hold them all. Another option is to enable "lctl set_param printk=+lfsck" on the MDS and OSS and have it print

If you only have those two processor models to choose from I’d do the 5217 for MDS and 5218 for OSS. If you were using ZFS for a backend definitely the 5218 for the OSS. With ZFS your processors are also your RAID controller so you have the disk i/o, parity calculation, checksums and ZFS threads

Dear all, We are currently configuring a Lustre filesystem and facing a dilemma. We have the choice between two types of processors for an OSS and a MDS. - Intel Xeon Gold 5217 3GHz, 11M Cache,10.40GT/s, 2UPI, Turbo, HT,8C/16T (115W) - DDR4-2666 - Intel Xeon Gold 5218 2.3GHz, 22M

We encountered this in testing done time ago and already have a bug filed (don't recall the number right now) and should have a patch soonish if not already. The gist of the problem is changelog registration limits (interger type) and some padding resulting in an artificially low limit. On Thu,

Hi all, when adding an MDT2 to a system with MGS+MDT0 and MDT1, there was an interruption, the MGS at first reported LustreError: 140-5: Server hebe-MDT0002 requested index 2, but that index is already in use. Use --writeconf to force LustreError: 30446:0:(mgs_handler.c:535:mgs_target_reg())
