[Lustre-discuss] only root can read/write on new lustre filesystem (Lustre 2.6)

[Wahl, Edward]

Normally we only see this kind of thing when directory services aren't working on the lustre servers.

What form of user directory service are you using? (Passwd, LDAP, yp, etc)  Can you su over to a user on the servers?

I'm sure I've overlooked something in the documentation, but for the life of me, I can't figure out what.

I've setup a new cluster running 2.6 and everything seemed to go fine.  I've got the filesystem mounted on a few clients and as long as I am root, I can read and write to it just fine.

If I switch to another user, I get something like this:

-bash-4.1$ ls -al
ls: cannot access test: Permission denied
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Feb  5 00:58 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Feb  4 23:05 ..
d????????? ? ?    ?       ?            ? test


if I am root though, it looks fine:

[cvt]# ls -al
total 12
drwxr-xr-x 4 root     root     4096 Feb  5 00:58 .
drwxr-xr-x 3 root     root     4096 Feb  4 23:05 ..
drwxr-xr-x 2 test test 4096 Feb  5 01:13 test


No amount of chmod'ing or chown'ing has worked to resolve this.  I know I've seen this before and I feel like it was in the context of NFS, but I'm not finding it.

I could use any help/advice to figure this out.

Thanks!
