[LU-1308] 2.2 clients unable to mount upgraded MDT

Thu, 7 Jun 2012 12:33:41 +0000

We are hitting a strange bug while upgrading to 2.2.0. We moved all the servers and some clients to 2.2 already, however our TCP clients are unable to mount the filesystem, because they are unable to find a suitable NID to connect to the MDT. 2.1.1 clients work fine.
In our case o2ib

{0,1}

are the first networks listed in all configs (MGS/MDT/OST config), and the tcp one is occuring as the third one. All the clients which use o2ib work fine, as the first MDT NID they get from MGS works for them, however TCP ones fail (at least thats what we supose).
Our mds params are:
Parameters: mgsnode=172.16.193.1@o2ib,172.16.126.1@tcp mgsnode=172.16.193.3@o2ib,172.16.126.2@tcp failover.node=172.16.193.3@o2ib,172.16.126.2@tcp mdd.quota_type=ug

Servers have:
options lnet networks="o2ib0(ib0),o2ib1(ib1),tcp0(eth0)"
TCP clients:
options lnet networks="tcp0(eth0)"

And the client gets this:
[root@n1-4-1 ~]# lctl which_nid 172.16.126.1@tcp
172.16.126.1@tcp

[root@n1-4-1 ~]# lctl ping 172.16.126.1@tcp
12345-0@lo
12345-172.16.193.1@o2ib
12345-192.168.193.2@o2ib1
12345-172.16.126.1@tcp

[root@n1-4-1 ~]# mount -t lustre 172.16.126.1@tcp:/scratch /mnt/lustre/scratch/
mount.lustre: mount 172.16.126.1@tcp:/scratch at /mnt/lustre/scratch failed: No such file or directory
Is the MGS specification correct?
Is the filesystem name correct?
If upgrading, is the copied client log valid? (see upgrade docs)

I'm also attaching two debug dumps (lctl dk) for 2.1.1 client (works fine) and 2.2.0 client (fails).
