Re: [Moosefs-users] Two filesystems handled by one master?

[Thomas S H. <tha...@gm...>]

Hi,

I have effectively 13 filesystems on one mfsmaster, but only one underlying
"filesystem".

The thing to do is to just have your clients mount subdirectories under the
moosefs root directory, so the moosefs root directory looks like this:

/stuff/<files>
/morestuff/<files>

and then on the client you mount like this:

mfsmount <mountpoint> -S stuff # mounts the /stuff directory to the
mountpoint instead of the whole moosefs mount

I use this to partition out data for different environments and different
types of data, so I have:
/users
/prod/media
/qa/media
etc.
