[Pvfs2-users] Re: Storage create failed error

[Kevin Harms]

Hong,

   The error below indicates someone is already using the port you  
specified. (possibly a pvfs2-server is still running). As far as the  
pvfs2-fs.conf issue, it's possible the "rouge" pvfs2-server is running  
and you connected to that and it had an older version of pvfs2-fs.conf  
loaded.
