[Lustre-discuss] mdsdb creation, git- inode hard link warnings

[Adam]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone else had experienced hard-link warnings when 
attempting to create the mdsdb, eg:

warning MDS inode git-var (inum 83834835): DB_KEYEXIST: Key/data pair 
already exists hard link?
warning MDS inode git-verify-pack (inum 83834835): DB_KEYEXIST: Key/data 
pair already exists hard link?
warning MDS inode git-verify-tag (inum 83834835): DB_KEYEXIST: Key/data 
pair already exists hard link?
warning MDS inode git-write-tree (inum 83834835): DB_KEYEXIST: Key/data 
pair already exists hard link?

Roughly 250 or so of the same time of warning as the above, and all for 
the same inode.

If the mdsdb can eventually be created (27GB so far and growing after 12 
hours of creation time), will it be safe to use a database created with 
those warnings to create the ostdb's, then run lfsck?

This would be: 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5_lustre.1.8.3

Thank you,
Adam
