Lustre code available from Whamcloud git repository contains tools to test a Lustre installation. Since creation of Lustre in 2001, these tools have matured and multiplied. To date, three different test suits are available.

Test suite overview

This document assumes that you have a Linux kernel compiled with Lustre patches. Typical routes to getting a working Lustre kernel include:

  • By downloading a pre-build kernel from a provider.
  • By applying the Lustre patches and building your own kernel.
    Details on both of these routes is provided on the wiki page: Putting together a Lustre filesystem.

llmount.sh

One of the simplest test suites consists of llmount.sh and llmountcleanup.sh. llmount.sh uses a collection of bash scripts to create a Lustre file system complete with MDS, MDT, OSS, OST and Client using loop devices on a single machine. llmountcleanup.sh tears down the work llmount.sh performed and should return your system to normal.

Once llmount.sh has completed successfully you should see the following:

[root@client-10 ~]# /build/lustre-release/lustre/tests/llmount.sh

[root@client-10 ~]#

NOTE Before you run llmount.sh it is necessary to set the debug size environment variable: export DEBUG_SIZE=256. Setting the DEBUG_SIZE to this value ensures enough space is allocated for logs for all the cpus in the system. If DEBUG_SIZE is too small, the param setting will complain during llmoun.sh

test-acc.sh
