Line numbers in debug messages seem wrong.
by E.S. Rosenberg
I started trying lustre + kernel 3.16 and sadly it doesn't like this kernel
(it is fine with 3.14 though), not being afraid of a bit of code I figured
I'd have a look at the location in the code that the error messages seem to
suggest, but those lines seem wrong.
Here's the message I get:
kernel: LNetError: 2895:0:(linux-tcpip.c:82:libcfs_ipif_query()) Can't get
flags for interface ib0
kernel: LNetError: 2895:0:(o2iblnd.c:2694:kiblnd_create_dev()) Can't query
IPoIB interface ib0: -515
hm-40 kernel: LNetError: 105-4: Error -100 starting up LNI o2ib
linux-tcpip.c:82 -- precompiler ifdef, libcfs_ipif_query() is only defined
25 lines later, seems may have to be line 127
o2iblnd.c:2694 -- seems it should be line 2754
So:
1. Am I correct in my line guesses?
2. How come these line# are so terribly off?
Thanks,
Eli

kernel/mofed/os support matrix
by Aleksey Senin
Is there any matrix published that can tell with
OS/kernel/OFED(MOFED)/stacks are supported?
My particular question is if it possible to compile latest Lustre master
branch against Ubuntu 14, kernel-3.12 and MOFED-2.2

Lustre 1.8 client on RedHat 7
by Zachary Beebleson
Just wondering if anyone tried to build a Lustre 1.8 client on a RedHat 7
system (I believe I saw some chatter about building a Lustre 2+ client on el7).
I have a legacy Lustre 1.8.4 file system, that I did not chance to upgrade to
Lustre 2+, and I'd like to mount it on new RedHat 7 computes. On a RedHat 6
system a Whamcloud Lustre 1.8.7 client worked, but I was not able to get a
Lustre 1.8.* Whamcloud rpm to install on RHEL7 --- too many old dependencies. I
also tried to do a rpm --rebuild, but kept getting build errors such as:
----------------------------------------
....
....
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
make[6]: *** [/root/rpmbuild/BUILD/lustre-2.5.2/lustre/llite/llite_lib.o] Error
1
make[5]: *** [/root/rpmbuild/BUILD/lustre-2.5.2/lustre/llite] Error 2
make[4]: *** [/root/rpmbuild/BUILD/lustre-2.5.2/lustre] Error 2
make[3]: *** [_module_/root/rpmbuild/BUILD/lustre-2.5.2] Error 2
make[2]: *** [modules] Error 2
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.hxvMyD (%build)
RPM build errors:
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.hxvMyD (%build)
---------------------------------------
both for Lustre 1.8 client source rpms and Lustre 2.5 (on a RHEL7 system).
I've never tried to build any part of Lustre from source --- only used the
available rpms. However, nothing appears to have been released yet for RHEL7.
When there is a release, I assume it will be for Lustre 2+, which is
incompatible with Lustre 1.8.4 servers, right?
Thanks,
Zach

LNET: out of memory at /build/buildd/linux-3.13.0/drivers/staging/lustre/
by Nico Budewitz
HI,
I recently had to set up a few post-processing machines based on Ubuntu trusty kernel 2 3.13.0-32-generic #57-Ubuntu. The kernel lustre module worked fine, until LNET complained about:
LNetError: 2026:0:(lib-lnet.h:399:lnet_md_alloc()) LNET: out of memory at /build/buildd/linux-3.13.0/drivers/staging/lustre/include/linux/lnet/lib-lnet.h:399 (tried to alloc '(md)' = 4208)
Sep 10 10:41:37 vis-m2 kernel: [180229.112013] LNetError: 2026:0:(lib-lnet.h:399:lnet_md_alloc()) LNET: 274426476 total bytes allocated by lnet
Has anyone seen this error before, or a fix? Attached you will find a more detailed kernel log.
LU-3585 indicates a similar problem, but the bug seems to be resolved by now.
All machines based on Scientific Linux 6, kernel 2.6.32 are working as expected. When hitting the bug the throughput to the file system drops quite a lot and the log shows corresponding errors. The problem is reproducible.
Let me know, if you have an idea.
Mvh,
Nico

lfs migrate
by Robin Humble
Hiya,
has anyone used 'lfs migrate [--block]' to live migrate lots of data?
it worked ok?
any hints for best usage? (how many migrates running per OST etc.)
the context is that we've doubled our number of OSTs and now need to
rebalance our ~1 PB of data by moving roughly 1/2 of it onto the new
empty OSTs.
I have yet to chat to anyone who's used 'lfs migrate' (either directly
or via lfs_migrate) in production, so I'm being paranoid and looking
for comforting war stories where it's been used to shift around a lot
of data without problems...
documentation is a bit scarce. maybe just
https://jira.hpdd.intel.com/browse/LU-2445
and 'lfs help migrate'. but with --block it sounds pretty amazing.
it should be able to do the rebalance live and without a downtime
(with some delays to file access).
we're using the latest(?) Intel Enterprise Lustre version 2.0.1.1
(which appears to be 2.5.2 based). we've heard via Intel support that
'lfs migrate' runs a verify pass, which sounds nice.
cheers,
robin
