This caught me out in a recent upgrade:
cat /proc/fs/lustre/lov/{yourmdt}/target_obd
rather than
"lctl dl"
Shows the state of the OST.
Cheers,
Sean

All,
We are still trying to move forward getting our filesystem at least partially up with a failed OST.
Currently the OST will kernel panic any device that mounts it. That seems to be a constant.
So, the plan is to bring the system up without that OST and find what data will be lost.
Now, I am trying to deactivate the OST on the MGS, but it seems to have no effect.
Running lctl --device 14 deactivate does not change anything. The OST still shows ‘UP’
Is there a way to force lustre to deactivate an OST altogether when it is showing ‘UP’ and the OST is not going to be happily mounted?
I can mount the filesystem, but many actions hang (ls, df, etc).
