[gfarm-discuss:14141] ldap server failing

[Matt <mattmoran76@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Further on to this I realised it was because the slapd was falling over.  I enabled logging and tried to start gfarm-slapd and got the following in the log:

PANIC: fatal region error detected; run recovery
Oct 10 10:05:46 sl08 slapd[11611]: bdb_db_open: dbenv_open failed: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery (-30978)
Oct 10 10:05:46 sl08 slapd[11611]: backend_startup: bi_db_open(0) failed! (-30978)
Oct 10 10:05:46 sl08 slapd[11611]: slapd shutdown: initiated

So looks like the db got corrupted.

Copying large files doesn't appear to be a problem, but when this happened I was copying 100,000s of small files, which is obviously creating a large ldap db, the ldap db directory was at 
8.3GB when this happened.

I've wiped, resetted, and ran again and hit the same problem.

I don't really want to alter the gfarm settings for the bdb or ldap, anyone got any suggestions? would using postgresql be better?

Thanks,

Matt

Hi folks,

Left a cp going from a gfarm client using fuse over the weekend.  When not trying to ls my /mnt/gfarm I receive invalid argument.

So tried fusermount -u /mnt/gfarm
then mount again with gfarm -sl -N2 /mnt/gfarm and receive /: invalid argument

Restarted gfarm services on mds, the three datanodes, and rebooted a client.  Still getting the same error.

Anyone have any idea what's going on?

Thanks,

Matt
