[Lustre-discuss] new ost not recognized

I have mounted two new ost to an existing lustre fs of 10 ost in total.
It seams that everything was o.k. because the size increases on one client.
I want to use this new disk space but I recognized that on the new ost the 
disk space was not used.
I looked for
recovery_status
and there was written INACTIVE.
lctl dl 
on mds shows no new osts.
I unmount the new ost but than the fs on the client freezes. Then I mount 
again and got 
status: COMPLETE
recovered_clients: 13

Thats strange because I would expect 14 clients + mdt 
and indeed 
lctl dl 
on one client gives only 10 ost instead of 12
the same was on mds.

It seems that on one client and on the mds the new osts are not recognized.
Can anybody explain what happens, and give me a hint how I can use the new 
disk space?

I use version 1.6.0.1 on servers and version 1.6.1 on clients
Thanks in advance
Harald
