<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>Hi, all,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>I got a problem when I testing lustre-1.6.5.1 on
CentOS-5.2.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>I have four machines(PCs), they are MGS
co-located with MDT, OSS-1, OSS-2 and CLT. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>OSS-1 have two disks which are formatted as
ost01(40GB) and ost02(15GB).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>OSS-2 have two disks which are formatted as
ost03(23GB) and ost04(5GB).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>At first, I reformat the MGS/MDT and mount it
to /mnt/ as follow:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>[root@MGS ~]# mkfs.lustre --reformat --fsname=testfs
--mgs --mdt /dev/hdb</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>[root@MGS ~]# mount -t lustre /dev/hdb
/mnt/mgs</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>Second, I reformat OSTs and mount it to /mnt as
follow:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>[root@OSS-1 ~]# mkfs.lustre --reformat
--fsname=testfs --ost <A title="mailto:--mgsnode=MGS@tcp
CTRL + Click 開啟連結"
href="mailto:--mgsnode=MGS@tcp">--mgsnode=MGS@tcp</A> /dev/hdc</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>[root@OSS-1 ~]# mkfs.lustre --reformat
--fsname=testfs --ost <A title="mailto:--mgsnode=MGS@tcp
CTRL + Click 開啟連結"
href="mailto:--mgsnode=MGS@tcp">--mgsnode=MGS@tcp</A> /dev/hdd</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>[root@OSS-1 ~]# mount -t lustre /dev/hdc
/mnt/ost01</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>[root@OSS-1 ~]# mount -t lustre /dev/hdd
/mnt/ost02</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>[root@OSS-2 ~]# mkfs.lustre --reformat
--fsname=testfs --ost <A title="mailto:--mgsnode=MGS@tcp

<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>[root@OSS-2 ~]# mkfs.lustre --reformat

<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>[root@OSS-2 ~]# mount -t lustre /dev/hdc
/mnt/ost03</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>[root@OSS-2 ~]# mount -t lustre /dev/hdd
/mnt/ost04</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Third, I mounted lustre file system at CLT like this:</DIV>
<DIV>[root@CLT ~] # mount -t lustre <A
href="mailto:MGS@tcp:/testfs">MGS@tcp:/testfs</A> /mnt/lfs<BR>[root@CLT mnt]# df

<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>Fourth, I try to use "lfs" command to
set stripe parameters at CLT.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>[root@CLT mnt]# lfs setstripe lfs -s 8m -c
-1</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>Fifth, I use "dd" command to test lustre file
system.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>Then, it gives <EM>error</EM> "<EM>no space

<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>I have no idea about this error. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>Is there anyone could tell me about that how to
config lustre to avoid this error?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=新細明體 size=2>didn't Lustre put file into the OSTs which still
have free spaces instead of those full ones ?</FONT></DIV>
