Hi,

You don't need pnfs installed on the pool node. There should only be one pnfs running in your entire dcache instance.
What you need to do is nfs mount the pnfs service from your admin node on the pool node. 

On the admin node, go to  /pnfs/fs/admin/etc/exports and copy the file 127.0.0.1 to a file that has the ip address of your pool node as the name, then cd into the trusted directory and do the same.

Then on the pool node add something like
gw04.hep.ph.ic.ac.uk:/fs /pnfs/fs             nfs     hard,intr,rw,noac,auto 0 0
to your /etc/fstab, create the /pnfs/fs directory, mount it and create the symlink

Then, to run a gridftp door on your pool node:
Set the /opt/d-cache/etc/door_config file on the pool node to 

ADMIN_NODE     gw04.hep.ph.ic.ac.uk

door          active
--------------------
GSIDCAP         no
GRIDFTP         yes
SRM             no

and then run /opt/d-cache/install/install_doors.sh
and then start dcache-opt.

dCache uses the name of things to work out which one to use. so if you have two gridftp doors named GFTP then the one that started last gets used. What the install_doors script does is change the name to something more unique (GFTP-<hostname -s> basically) so you don't get name collisions. You can change the names yourself in the /opt/d-cache/config/*.batch files

Subject: dCache- clients transfer files



Hi all,

At IC we have the following dCache nodes:

admin_node   --- gw04.hep.ph.ic.ac.uk
pool_node    --- gw03.hep.ph.ic.ac.uk

We want to configure the pool node such that clients transfer 
files directly to/from the pool node, and not via the admin node.

We installed pnfs and dcache-opt rpms on the pool node
and started pnfs and dcache-opt (including gsiftp) services.


> /opt/pnfs.3.1.10/pnfs/install/pnfs-install.sh


NB. There was no pnfs configuration (this seems to be part of the 
dcache-core package, which of course we did not want to install on the 
pool node!) so:

 >/sbin/service pnfs start
 >pnfs unrecognised service

so we used

> /opt/pnfs.3.1.10/pnfs/bin/pnfs start


then we manually created the

/pnfs/fs/usr/data/dteam

directory and set the ownership and permissions and

 > ln -s /pnfs/fs/usr /pnfs/hep.ph.ic.ac.uk

We also started dcahe-opt service on the pool node


>[root@gw03 root]# /opt/d-cache/bin/dcache-opt start
>Starting dcache services: Starting gridftpdoorDomain  6 5 4 3 2 1 0 Done (pid=30168)
>Starting gsidcapdoorDomain  6 5 4 3 2 1 0 Done (pid=30250)
>Starting srmDomain  6 5 4 3 2 1 0 Done (pid=30333)


Then we conducted tests with srmcp and following are our observations.

1. If pnfs service is not running on the pool_node then it is not
   selected by the dCache as a TURL. Admin_node is selected
   as a TURL by default and srmcp is succesfull.

2. If pnfs service is running on the pool_node then it fails, if the TURL is selected through it. 
   TURL=gsiftp://gw03.hep.ph.ic.ac.uk:2811///dteam/testfile1721

The client then hangs for a large time before failing with Java errors

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We're not completely clear when/how gw03 selected over gw04 for the 
TURL: if pnfs is not running on one, the other is always selected, but 
if pnfs is running on both the choice seems almost to depend on which 
service was last restarted!

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Mona & Owen
