[PVFS-users] Still not too sure about installation

[kenix y]

Hi,

About part 4.4 Configuring the I/O servers, it is only done at the compute 
node side, right?
And 4.5 Starting the PVFS daemons:
[root at head /root]# /usr/local/sbin/mgr      is only done at the frontend?
[root at node0 /root]# /usr/local/sbin/iod     is only done at the compute 
node?

[root at frontend-0 /root]# /usr/local/bin/pvfs-ping -h frontend-0 -f 
/pvfs-meta tells me that :
mgr (frontend-0:3000) is responding.
iod 0 (node0:7000) is responding.
iod 1 (node1:7000) is responding.
pvfs file system /pvfs-meta is fully operational.

And i did 4.6 Client configuration on both my frontend and compute node.

But when i come to [root at frontend-0 /root]# /sbin/mount.pvfs 
frontend-0:/pvfs-meta /mnt/pvfs
The response is
mount.pvfs: Invalid argument
mount.pvfs: server 10.1.1.1 alive, but mount failed (invalid metadata 
directory
name?)

I followed what Charles did and got this back:
[root at frontend-0 root]# tail -3 /var/log/messages
Jun 24 00:08:35 frontend-0 kernel: (inode.c, 193): pvfs_read_super aborting!
Jun 24 00:10:00 compute-0-0 CROND[2964]: (root) CMD (/usr/lib/sa/sa1 1 1)
Jun 24 00:10:00 frontend-0 CROND[10150]: (root) CMD (/usr/lib/sa/sa1 1 1)

And I followed Phil's suggestions, but I still can't find the error.
Anyone knows what is wrong?
