Building ORANGEFS on a Single Server
====================================
::
- ./configure --prefix=/opt/ofs --with-db-backend=lmdb
+ ./configure --prefix=/opt/ofs --with-db-backend=lmdb --disable-usrint
make
make install
-Create an orangefs config file::
+Create an orangefs config file by running pvfs2-genconfig and
+specifying a target config file. Pvfs2-genconfig will prompt you
+through. Generally it works fine to take the defaults, but you
+should use your server's hostname, rather than "localhost" when
+it comes to that question::
/opt/ofs/bin/pvfs2-genconfig /etc/pvfs2.conf
Create an /etc/pvfs2tab file::
+Localhost is fine for your pvfs2tab file:
+
echo tcp://localhost:3334/orangefs /pvfsmnt pvfs2 defaults,noauto 0 0 > \
/etc/pvfs2tab
Start the server::
- /opt/osf/sbin/pvfs2-server /etc/pvfs2.conf
+ /opt/ofs/sbin/pvfs2-server /etc/pvfs2.conf
Now the server should be running. Pvfs2-ls is a simple
test to verify that the server is running::
If stuff seems to be working, load the kernel module and
turn on the client core::
- /opt/ofs/sbin/pvfs2-client -p /opt/osf/sbin/pvfs2-client-core
+ /opt/ofs/sbin/pvfs2-client -p /opt/ofs/sbin/pvfs2-client-core
Mount your filesystem::
- mount -t pvfs2 tcp://localhost:3334/orangefs /pvfsmnt
+ mount -t pvfs2 tcp://`hostname`:3334/orangefs /pvfsmnt
