[PVFS2-users] Re: how to debug pvsf2 - mount fail

[Charles Shen]

With kind help from this aliase, I was able to load the pvfs2.ko.

Now I'm installing the pvfs2 on a cluster of two machines, server-1 and 
server-2.
With pvfs2.ko loaded, pvfs2-server running, and mount point created, I 
typed the mount
command as instructed in the quick start manual but it failed:

[root at server-2 root]# mount -t pvfs2 pvfs2 /mnt/pvfs2 -v
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on pvfs2,
        or too many mounted file systems

Can any one comment on it?

Thanks,
-charles


[root at server-2 root]# ls /mnt
cdrom  floppy  pvfs2

[root at server-2 root]# lsmod | grep pvfs
