The pvfs2-migrate-collection binary worked perfectly.  Thanks!

Unfortunately, now that I can actually start up pvfs2-server, I've found 
out that my infiniband problem still exists.  Any sort of file read 
operation causes pvfs2-server to take up about 20% of the CPU.  Writes 
are even worse (causing pvfs2-client and pvfs2-server to both take 50% 
of the CPU each).  Doing a simple ls of a directory with only 3 files in 
it take about 5 seconds.  Removing an empty directory takes about the 
same amount of time.

The pvfs2-server.log doesn't show anything strange that I can tell.  Any 
clues?

Thanks again,
-Lee
