On an existing file system, a Lustre administrator can manually enable MMP when the file system is unmounted. Use the following commands to determine whether MMP is running in Lustre and to enable or disable the MMP feature. To determine if MMP is enabled, run: - dumpe2fs -h <device>|grep mmp + dumpe2fs -h /dev/block_device | grep mmp Here is a sample command: dumpe2fs -h /dev/sdc | grep mmp Filesystem features: has_journal ext_attr resize_inode dir_index filetype extent mmp sparse_super large_file uninit_bg To manually disable MMP, run: - tune2fs -O ^mmp <device> + tune2fs -O ^mmp /dev/block_device To manually enable MMP, run: - tune2fs -O mmp <device> + tune2fs -O mmp /dev/block_device When MMP is enabled, if ldiskfs detects multiple mount attempts after the file system is mounted, it blocks these later mount attempts and reports the time when the MMP block was last updated, the node name, and the device name of the node where the file system is currently mounted.
