Description

This issue was created by maloo for Andreas Dilger <[e-mail]>

This issue relates to the following test suite run: https://testing.whamcloud.com/test_sets/c9145dc4-956b-416d-acf3-29340ca918bd

lustre-initialization failed with the following error due to passing multiple NIDs to mkfs.lustre --mgsnode without the "@tcp" nettype:

mkfs.lustre --mgsnode=trevis-70vm7:trevis-70vm8 --fsname=lustre --ost --index=0 --failnode=trevis-70vm6@tcp --param=sys.timeout=20 --backfstype=ldiskfs --device-size=8388608 --mkfsoptions=\"-b 4096\" --reformat /dev/lvm-Role_OSS/P1
mkfs.lustre: Invalid NID string 'trevis-70vm7:trevis-70vm8'
mkfs.lustre: Can't parse NID 'trevis-70vm7:trevis-70vm8'
mkfs.lustre: exiting with 1 (Operation not permitted)

Test session details:
clients: https://build.whamcloud.com/job/lustre-master/4530 - 5.14.0-362.18.1.el9_3.x86_64
servers: https://build.whamcloud.com/job/lustre-master/4530 - 5.14.0-362.18.1_lustre.el9.x86_64

It looks like this has been failing continuously since patch https://review.whamcloud.com/50362 "LU-10391 obdclass: handle large NIDs for mount strings" landed on 2023-08-24.

Since the failover-part-* sessions are only run during "full" testing, this was not visible during patch review testing.
