[Pvfs2-developers] Suggested testing for bmi_mx?

[Scott Atchley]

Hi Murali,

The link on http://pvfs.org/pvfs2-faq.html for IOR is bad. The FTP  
url for the tarball directory is still:

ftp://ftp.llnl.gov/pub/siop/ior/

I found LTP (Linux Test Project) and connectathon mentions NFS. Does  
it use the mounted filesystem or does it try to talk directly with  
the servers? If the latter, are there any special instructions for  
using it with PVFS?

Thanks,

Scott
