Re: [Moosefs-users] Is it possible to make separate mfs-mount points on different sets of hdd drives?

Hi!

You don't need any hacks, look at
http://www.moosefs.org/reference-guide.html at " Clients (mfsmount) "
section. There you have:

MooseFS is mounted with the following command:
mfsmount [-h master] [-p port] [-l path] [-w mount-point]
where master is the host name of the managing server, port is the same as
given in MATOCU_LISTEN_PORT in file mfsmaster.cfg, path is mounted MooseFS
subdirectory (default is /, which means mounting the whole file system),
mount-point is the previously created directory for MooseFS.

(Or you need still another functionality?)


Kind regards

Subject: [Moosefs-users] Is it possible to make separate mfs-mount points on
different sets of hdd drives?

Hi,

When I list up a set of hdd drives in mfshdd.cfg, all the given hdd
drives are automatically managed as single storage by mfs which, I
agree, is desired in many cases.

However, is there any way to make separate mfs-mount points on
different storage? For instance, what if one wants to have two
different mfs-mount points on the same mfs client node while the two
mount points are pointing out to different sets of hdd drivers or
different directories?

I got this question while comparing MFS with GlusterFS that provides
the capability of allowing multiple mount points to sit on different
storage devices.

Any comment or workaround will be greatly appreciated.

-Jun
