[Pvfs2-users] pvfs2-genconfig problem

[Jeffrey McDonald]

Hello,

I have a cluster of computers that I'm attempting to install pvfs.  This 
is a rocks 4.1 cluster, if that is familiar to the reader.   The 
pvfs2-genconfig program that I'm using to setup the pvfs config files 
mixes metadata and i/o servers in a strange way when I configure it on 
the head node. 

The head node is called sax and the compute nodes are called sax000, 
sax001, sax002 and so on.   I want the metadata server to be sax and the 
i/o servers to be sax00N.   When the pvfs-fs.conf and pvfs-server.conf 
files are created, sax000 and sax appear to be swapped in function in 
the pvfs-fs.conf config file,  e.g.

....
Alias sax tcp://sax000:3334
Alias sax000 tcp://sax:3334
....

I managed to repair these files, I had to repair all of the 
pvfs-server.conf-$(hostname) files because the program shifted by one 
the numbering of each host, e.g. pvfs-server.conf-sax002 has the 
configuration for sax003.  

I'm not sure if this bug has been reported, but if someone already has a 
fix, please share it.
I'm using pvfs2-1.4.0.

thanks,
Jeff
