into     another<br><br>We use a GPFS file system for our computing clusters and we’re working
on moving to a new SAN.<br><br>We originally tried AFM, but it didn’t seem to work very well. We tried
to do a prefetch on a test policy scan of 100 million files, and after
24 hours it hadn’t pre-fetched anything. It wasn’t clear what was happening.
Some smaller tests succeeded, but the NFSv4 ACLs did not seem to be transferred.<br><br>Since then we started using rsync with the GPFS attrs patch. We have over
600 million files and 700 TB. I split up the rsync tasks with lists of
files generated by the policy engine and we transferred the original data
in about 2 weeks. Now we’re working on final synchronization. I’d like
to use one of the delete options to remove files that were sync’d earlier
and then deleted. This can’t be combined with the files-from option, so
it’s harder to break up the rsync tasks. Some of the directories I’m
running this against have 30-150 million files each. This can take quite
some time with a single rsync process.<br><br>I’m also wondering if any of my rsync options are unnecessary. I was using
avHAXS and numeric-ids. I’m thinking the A (acls) and X (xatttrs) might
be unnecessary with GPFS->GPFS. We’re only using NFSv4 GPFS ACLs. I
don’t know if GPFS uses any xattrs that rsync would sync or not. Removing
those two options removed several system calls, which should make it much
faster, but I want to make sure I’m syncing correctly. Also, it seems
there is a problem with the GPFS patch on rsync where it will always give
an error trying to get GPFS attributes on a symlink, which means it doesn’t
sync any symlinks when using that option. So you can rsync symlinks or
GPFS attrs, but not both at the same time. This has lead to me running
two rsyncs, one to get all files and one to get all attributes.<br><br>Thanks for any ideas or suggestions.<br><br>John Ratliff | Pervasive Technology Institute | UITS | Research Storage
