[Lustre-discuss] need help debuggin an access permission problem

Hello List,

I'm after debugging hints...

I have a couple of users that intermittently get I/O errors when trying 
to ls a directory (as in, within half an hour, works -> doesn't work -> 
works...).

Users/groups are kept in ldap; as far as I can see/check, the ldap 
information is consistend everywhere (i.e. no replication failure or 
anything).

I am trying to figure out what is going on here/where this is going 
wrong. Can someone give me a hint on how to debug this? Specifically, 
how does the MDS look up this sort of information, could there be a 
'list too long' type of error involved, something like that?

Thanks,
Tina
