[Pvfs2-users] PVFS2 over infiniband: mount fails

[Vikrant Kumar]

Hello,

Im trying to install PVFS2 on a cluster with Topspin IB. I have been 
able to start the pvfs2-server and did some quick testing with MPICH2 
and things seem ok. I would note here that during compilation of mpich2 
I had to provide CFLAGS and LDFLAGS for lvapi and lmosal, to get the build.

Anyways all this is without the kernel module and pvfs2-client. Now when 
I start with this part, Im able to load the pvfs2 kernel module and 
start the pvfs2-client application. When I try to say:
"mount -t pvfs2 ib://hostname:3335/pvfs2-fs /mnt/pvfs2 "
it throws an error:

    mount: Protocol not available

Just to make sure the pvfs2-server on this machine is up using IB, and 
on the correct port number.

Any idea what might be going wrong here. I did a clean installation of 
server and client with tcp and that worked fine.

Thanks
Vikrant
