In addition, a new MGS NID may change the clients mount command.</p> <p>If we are adding an additional for new clients and not changing the one for existing clients do we need to do a umount?</p> <p>You need to do the --writeconf so the servers can use the new NIDS. And the clients have to be un-mounted to do the --writeconf. See the Lustre Manual. </p> <p>Please reopen if you have further questions</p> Development Rank 1|hzveun: Rank (Obsolete) 6047 Severity
