Lustre-test package includes a test script called llmount.sh that will
create loopback devices for mdt & ost targets and mount them on the
localhost. I followed the same recipe by hand to mount a "real" mdt
device with a couple loopback ost targets so I could run the mds-survey
benchmark. The test scripts have a brief mention in lustre manual
section "Installing and Testing a Lustre File System".

Good afternoon,
I'm in the process of standing up a new lustre 2.5.3 file system, and have been
getting a strange error when I mount the mds/mdt.
I'm using CentOS 6.5, with the stock infiniband, lustre 2.5.3, and a logical
volume (to allow for snapshots and backups). The module for lnet contains the following
"options lnet networks=tcp0(em1),o2ib0(bond0)"
Though the mds/mdt seems to mount I see the following error...
~] mount -t lustre /dev/lustrepool/lustrevol /mdt
~] dmesg
LDISKFS-fs (dm-1): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. quota=on. Opts:
