Dimos: Your config file looks fine. I was able to use an IP address as the alias as well as part of the BMI address. So, no problems with PVFS there. On my system, my eth0 interface is defined with the IP address that I used in the BMI address; it is NOT defined in the /etc/hosts file. I will

Hi Dimos, By default (unless you use the TCPBindSpecific flag in the conf file, which you are not) the server should just try to bind to listen on *:3334, no matter what hostname or IP address you put in the conf file. In other words, it ignores the hostname and just listens for connections

Hello, did you test the case that you use native IPs? I changed the hostname to debianvm1, I added an entry debianvm1 10.10.8.2 to the /etc/hosts and I used the debianvm1 alias for the I/O server, but again the same error... It cannot bind to this address! Thanks. > Le Mon, 23 Jan 2012

Yes, I edited the /etc/hosts file before, as a possible solution, but nothing happened. I actually wrote : 10.10.8.2 debianvm1 and then I used debianvm1 as an alias... Do I have to provide the actual IP of the physical machine?? 10.10.8.2 is the IP of the virtual machine. Dimos. > Le Mo

The hostname command shows "debian". But with using the -a option you choose your own alias, right? If I run pvfs2-server /etc/pvfs2-fs.conf -d I get: [S 01/23 14:29] PVFS2 Server on node debian version 2.8.1 starting... [E 14:29:14.618851] Configuration file error. No host ID specified for alias
