Does this thing work if your chunkservers and metaserver on different racks??

[Artem V12]

Hello there,

I had made EC2 setup where metaserver and chunkservers resided on
different racks. I had tree nodes:
on box0 metaserver+chunkserver, on box1 and box2 only chunkservers.
And here's interesting facts: webui says that box1 and box2 hadn't
started, box0 is good and running! Checked PIDs on box1 and box2 -
they are running.. Logs on both box1 and box2 said that
they(chunkservers) had been trying to connect to metaserver on box0..
So they tried and didn't connected. I checked chunkserver logs on box0
- it says it was able to send "hello" to metaserver and etc..

This all leads me think that kosmosfs works only on the machines in
the same rack ...


Any ideas will be much appreciated!

Have you set the ssh well? Try the ssh connection between servers.
It will work.

I used kfs in virtual servers, linux Debian ... 1 meta and 3 chunkserver.

What ip addresses has you set?
