pNFS on Fedora14

[taousif]

Hi,

I would like to know that, whether the Fedora 14 supports pNFS or no If no, what I need to install.

Thank you

I believe it does - it's certainly part of Fedora 12 and 13, but you had to use the pnfs repositories.

You may find the instructions on the Fedora Wiki to be of some use. Although they're aimed at the earlier two versions, they may transplant nicely. I've not tried this, so may I suggest you give it a go on a test system first.

Thanks Roxoff,

Does any body know how to deploy pNFS, and what are its s/w and h/w requirements

[taousif]

Does RHEL6 have a support for pNFS ???

Hi,

I am setting up an pNFS.
When I’m trying to mount Meta Data Server on client it is showing

#mount –t nfs4 -o minorversion=1 <mds-server>:/ /mnt
mount.nfs4: Protocol not supported.

A little googling gave me this:

mount.nfs4: Protocol not supported - msg#02041 - fedora-list

It may or may not fix your problem.

Thank you,
but, this I had already tried, and couldn't fix the problem...

[Kloschüssel]

Did you build and install the PVFS2 layout driver on the client?

I have followed the way given
here http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index...ng_pNFS/spnfsd
and this one
http://wiki.linux-nfs.org/wiki/index...p_Instructions

Those instructions don't look bad, even though the wiki pages are almost 2 years old. Sorry, I'm not familiar enough with pNFS to help you any further.
