[LU-6095] racer.sh should propagate $TRUNCATE to remote clients

Tue, 3 Feb 2015 18:39:26 +0000

Running racer with 2 clients I noticed that $TRUNCATE (from init_test_env()) was not defined when file_truncate.sh was executed. This needs to be added to the list of propagated variables in test_1():

        for rdir in $RDIRS; do
                do_nodes $clients "DURATION=$DURATION MDSCOUNT=$MDSCOUNT \
                                   $racer $rdir $NUM_RACER_THREADS" &
                pid=$!
                rpids="$rpids $pid"
        done

In file_truncate.sh we should test that $TRUNCATE is set, exists and is executable before continuing

DIR=$1
MAX=$2

while true; do
        file=$DIR/$((RANDOM % MAX))
        $TRUNCATE $file $RANDOM 2> /dev/null
done

The net result of this is a lot of copies of sleep, sleeping for $RANDOM seconds

In turn this makes it impossible for racer to complete successfully.

The other subscripts should be audited for similar issues.
