[lustre-discuss] Converting MGS to ZFS - HA Config Question

Hi,

I am in the process of converting my pre-production cluster to use ZFS, and
I have a question regarding HA config parameters. The storage node has 24
disks, I've sliced off two disks in HBA mode to act as a 960G mirror. the
command is:

# mkfs.lustre --reformat --mgs  --failnode 10.140.93.41 at o2ib
--backfstype=zfs mgspool/mgt mirror d3710M0 d3710M1

This runs successfully and I get the output below, however I want to make
sure the second MDS node can be failed over too using Pacemaker, so if the
server I am on now is 10.140.93.42 and the other MDS is 10.140.93.41, do I
need to specify the host its on now (.42) anywhere in the config? I tried
the servicenode parameter but it refuses to have servicenode and failnode
in the command:

   Permanent disk data:
Target:     MGS
Index:      unassigned
Lustre FS:
Mount type: zfs
Flags:      0x64
              (MGS first_time update )
Persistent mount opts:

mkfs_cmd = zpool create -f -O canmount=off mgspool mirror d3710M0 d3710M1
mkfs_cmd = zfs create -o canmount=off  mgspool/mgt
  xattr=sa
