Hi,
Can you check if AFM was enabled at home cluster using "mmafmconfig
enable" command? What is the fileset mode are you using ?
Regards,
Venkat

Subject: [gpfsug-discuss] Extended attributes and ACLs with
AFM-based "NFS migration"
Sent by: gpfsug-discuss-bounces at spectrumscale.org
Hello,
I have a testbed cluster where I have setup AFM for an incremental NFS
migration between 2 GPFS filesystems in the same cluster. This is with
Spectrum Scale 4.1.1-5 on Linux (CentOS 7).
The documentation states: "On a GPFS data source, AFM moves all user
extended attributes and ACLs, and file sparseness is maintained."
(SpectrumScale 4.1.1 Advanced Administration Guide, page 226)
If I'm not mistaken, I have a GPFS data source (since I'm doing a
migration from GPFS to GPFS).
While file sparseness is mostly maintained, user extended attributes and
ACLs in the source/home filesystem do not appear to be migrated to the
target/cache filesystem (same goes for basic tests with ACLs):
% getfattr /fs1/zone1/s04/1900/3e479a3eb2eb92d419f812ba1287e8c6269
getfattr: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names
# file: fs1/zone1/s04/1900/3e479a3eb2eb92d419f812ba1287e8c6269
user.mfiles:sha2-256
%
While on the target filesystem:
% getfattr /fs2/zone1/s04/1900/3e479a3eb2eb92d419f812ba1287e8c6269
%
Am I missing something ? Is there another meaning to "user extended
attributes" than OS level extended attributes (i.e. non-GPFS xattr) ?
Loïc.
