Docu , timeouts

[Thomas Roth]

Hi all,

just started with beegfs, set up a test system while reading the documentation.

Of course there are some questions immedeately:

Is there a comprehensive listing of all utilities, commands, options?

Right now I am wondering it if is possible to edit / modify buddy mirror groups.

My test servers provide 3 targets each. I made all three on the first server "primary" when creating the mirror - this does not look good. (Although, if the I/O will go to both servers, it won't make much of a difference? No issues with the load?)

If I would need to do some hardware maintenance on one of the three targets on a server, I have to stop beegfs-storage, umount the targeted target, edit the config file and restart the service? Would be nicer if each target on a server had its own systemd-instance.

And why, why, do all the beegfs-systemd-units fail silently if the fail?

Had a typo in beegfs-storage.conf, started the service - no perceivable error - and wondered why my targets remained offline, until finally I thought of doing `systemd status...`  ;-)

Regards,

Thomas

You should be able to make changes without stopping.

Remove mirror group:

beegfs-ctl --removemirrorgroup --nodetype=storage --mirrorgroupid=[group-id]

Remove storage target:

beegfs-ctl --removetarget [target-id]

Did you check the storage node's log file?
