Description
Hi,
we have a ldiskfs Lustre install where one OST is permanently deactivated with
lctl conf_param lustre-OST005a.osc.active=0
we were in IEEL and saw no issues there, but are now in 2.10.4 to try and get better compatibility for file transfers to the new cluster.
the problem is that in 2.10.4 a chgrp on the client hangs forever as it re-tries infinitely. MDS load is significant too.
message from the MDS when the chgrp hangs is 1000's of these per second
Aug 7 19:45:41 metadata01 kernel: LustreError: 4502:0:(lod_dev.c:1400:lod_sync()) lustre-MDT0000-mdtlov: can't sync ost 90: -107
looking at that lod_sync() code, it doesn't check for OSTs being deactivated. the below seems to work as a quick fix so that we don't have to reboot back into IEEL.

the same fix would also seem to be appropriate for a deactivated MDT a few lines lower down.
please let me know if this is totally the wrong thing to do, or if alternatively if it's useful and you'd like me to upload a patch to Gerrit.
also dry-run of lfsck in 2.10.4 wants to correct layout for 15% of mdt files, and namespace (linkea_inconsistent) for about 15k files out of 225M. presumably because of this fs being old and/or a bit damaged from bugs and hardware failures and/or created under IEEL. OSTs all look ok in lfsck. we have not run a lfsck for real because this all looks too intrusive.
cheers,
robin
