[Moosefs-users] mfscgi non default data directory

[Brandon F. <bra...@li...>]

Hey all,
I may have a somewhat unusual set up, I currently have 3 mfs daemons
running on 1 machine, all using different ports and data directories.
they are working great, but my issue is with mfscgi.

I can get to work with one of the daemons (the one using default
ports) but not the others.
I try using the -P and -R option to change the rootpath and port
numbers but it still will only show the info for the mfs daemon using
default ports.

I figured it would be an issue with telling it what datapath to use,
but if i edit /usr/sbin/mfscgiserv to have the correct datapath it
stops immediately after starting. oddly enough the default value for
the datapath in mfscgiserv isnt even the correct path for the daemon
it displays info for.

has anyone tried this before? is there a secret -D option to tell it
what data path to use?

-Brandon
