[Pvfs2-users] pvfs2-cp does not terminate

[Sam Lang]

Hi Matthias,

Where is the storage location located on hostX for the servers?   
i.e.  What's listed in your server.conf files?

You could turn on debugging on the server, to see what's happening  
there.  Change EventLogging in your fs.conf from "none" to "verbose",  
and restart the servers.
