17 Summary of changes The following sections summarize changes to the GPFS licensed program and the GPFS library for version 3 release 2. Within each book in the library, a vertical line to the left of text and illustrations indicates technical changes or additions made to the previous edition of the book. Summary of changes for GPFS Version 3 Release 2 as updated, October 2007 Changes to GPFS and to the GPFS library for version 3 release 2 include: v New information: In the past, migrating to a new release of GPFS required shutting down GPFS and upgrading all nodes before GPFS could be restarted. GPFS V3.2 supports rolling upgrades and a limited form of backward compatibility: - Rolling upgrades enable you to install new GPFS code one node at a time without shutting down GPFS on other nodes. It is expected that all nodes will be upgraded within a short time. Some features become available on each node as soon as the node is upgraded, while other features become available as soon as all participating nodes are upgraded. - Backward compatibility allows running with a mixture of old and new nodes. Multi-cluster environments may be able to upgrade the local cluster while still allowing mounts from remote nodes in other clusters that have not yet been upgraded. You can designate up to eight NSD servers to simultaneously service I/O requests from different clients. Each of these NSD servers must have physical access to the same logical unit number (LUN). Different servers can serve I/O to different non-intersecting sets of clients for a variety of reasons, such as load balancing on the server, network partitioning by balancing the load on different networks, or workload partitioning. Multiple NSD server functions require all (peer) NSD servers to be part of the same GPFS cluster. The existing subnet functions in GPFS determine which NSD server should serve a particular client. The assumption is that nodes within a subnet are connected via high-speed networks. GPFS for Linux offers Clustered NFS (CNFS) to enable highly-available NFS exporting of file systems. Some or all nodes in an existing GPFS cluster also serve NFS and are part of the NFS cluster. All of the nodes in the NFS cluster export the same file systems to the NFS clients. This support includes the following: - Monitoring. Every node in the NFS cluster runs an NFS monitoring utility that monitors GPFS and the NFS and networking components on the node. After failure detection, and based on customer configuration, the monitoring utility may invoke a failover. - Failover. The automatic failover procedure transfers the NFS serving load from the failing node to another node in the NFS cluster. The failure is managed by the GPFS cluster, including lock and state recovery. - Load balancing. The IP address is the load unit that can be moved from one node to another because of failure or load balancing needs. This solution supports a failover of all the node s load (all NFS IP addresses) as one unit to another node. However, if no locks are outstanding, individual IP addresses can be moved to other nodes for load balancing purposes. The GPFS InfiniBand Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) code uses RDMA for NSC client file I/O requests. RDMA transfers data directly between the NSD client memory and the NSD server memory instead of sending and receiving the data over the TCP socket. Using RDMA may improve bandwidth and decrease CPU utilization. GPFS can use the SCSI-3 (Persistent Reserve) standard to provide fast failover with improved recovery times. To exploit this functionality the file system has to be created on SCSI-3 capable disks. Copyright IBM Corp. 1998, 2007 xv
18 To enable this function, you must set up PR when you create each NSD. The basic requirements for PR are that the NSD server must be an AIX node and that the disks must be regular AIX hdisks. To enable PR, use the new mmchconfig command option called usepersistentreserve. Monitoring is enabled with the SNMP-based management application, Net-SNMP. SNMP requires a Linux node installed in order to collect the data. Monitoring involves gaining a view of the GPFS system. Monitored information can be roughly grouped into the categories of configuration, status, and performance: - Configuration denotes the initially customized aspects of the system s current state. - Status information is dynamic information that expresses the current health of nodes, disks, and other hardware, including any reported error conditions disk utilization, and fragmentation. - Performance information includes quantitative measurement of the workings of a system. Performance enhancements include support for parallel defragmentation of a file system, larger pagepool support, and directory-locking: - Defragmentation of a file system can now be run in parallel across nodes in a cluster. - Maximum pagepool support is increased to 256 GB. - Directory-locking improvements for concurrent file creates and deletes from multiple nodes (this function will be available in APAR IZ01431). When a socket connection breaks due to a network failure, GPFS now tries to re-establish the connection rather than immediately initiating node expulsion procedures. Mount up to 256 file systems. GPFS V3.2 extends Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) functionality to integrate with HSM products. A single set of policies can be used to move data across different storage pools of a file system and to move data from GPFS storage pools to near-line storage and from near-line storage to GPFS storage pools. Additional enhancements include the ability to use policies for backup and restore. - Subroutine gpfs_fputattrswithpathname for backup and restore functions has been added. This subroutine sets all the extended file attributes for a file and invokes the policy engine for restoring files. - Subroutines gpfs_fgetattrs and gpfs_fputattrs have been enhanced with new flags. GPFS V3.2 enables the policy code to run in parallel across all nodes in the home cluster that have the file system mounted. The policy evaluation can then scale with the size of the cluster. Administration enhancements, which include: New commands: - mmchnode, which changes node attributes - mmnsddiscover, which rediscovers paths to the specified network shared disks on the specified nodes - mmtracectl, which sets up and enables GPFS tracing Updated commands: - mmapplypolicy to add the -M, -N, and -S options - mmchconfig to add several new configuration parameters - mmchdisk to add the -F option - mmchfs to add full or compat to the -V option - mmchmgr to add the -c option - mmchnsd to state that you can specify up to 8 NSD servers in the disk descriptors - mmcrfs: v To remove the mandatory MountPoint positional parameter v To add the -L and -T options v To change the default for the -D option from posix to nfs4 xvi GPFS: Concepts, Planning, and Installation Guide
19 v To change the default for the -k option from posix to all v To add the --version Version option v To change the default values for the -R and -M options to 2 - mmcrnsd to state that you can specify up to 8 NSD servers in the disk descriptors and to change PrimaryServer and BackupServer to serverlist - mmdefragfs to add the -P and -N options and to remove the -v option - mmdf to remove the -q option - mmedquota to add Device:Fileset to the -j option - mmlscluster to add the --cnfs option which displays the cluster NFS - mmlsfs to add the all_local and all_remote parameters - mmlsmgr to add the -c and -C parameters - mmmount to add the all_local and all_remote parameters Tracing is improved to increase the reliability of trace data gathering. It enhances the ability to acquire accurate and reliable problem determination information. With the new mmtracectl trace command, you can: - Turn trace on or off on the next session to automatically start trace when GPFS starts - Allow for predefined trace levels: io, all, def, and user-specified trace levels - Change the size of trace buffers - Allow a user-defined directory for keeping trace files - Control trace recycling during daemon termination: (off, local, global, or globalonshutdown) v Changed information: The terminology "cluster configuration manager" or "configuration manager" has been changed to "cluster manager". v Deleted information: The mmsanrepairfs command has been removed. All references to SANergy have been removed. Summary of changes xvii

21 Chapter 1. Introducing General Parallel File System IBM s General Parallel File System (GPFS) provides file system services to parallel and serial applications. GPFS allows parallel applications simultaneous access to the same files, or different files, from any node which has the GPFS file system mounted while managing a high level of control over all file system operations. GPFS is particularly appropriate in an environment where the aggregate peak need for data bandwidth exceeds the capability of a distributed file system server. GPFS allows users shared file access within a single GPFS cluster and across multiple GPFS clusters. A GPFS cluster consists of: v AIX 5L nodes, Linux nodes, or a combination thereof (see GPFS cluster configurations on page 6). A node may be: An individual operating system image on a single computer within a cluster. A system partition containing an operating system. Some IBM System p5 and IBM System p, machines allow multiple system partitions, each of which is considered to be a node within the GPFS cluster. v Network shared disks (NSDs) created and maintained by the NSD component of GPFS All disks utilized by GPFS must first be given a globally accessible NSD name. The GPFS NSD component provides a method for cluster-wide disk naming and access. On Linux machines running GPFS, you may give an NSD name to: - Physical disks - Logical partitions of a disk - Representations of physical disks (such as LUNs) On AIX machines running GPFS, you may give an NSD name to: - Physical disks - Virtual shared disks - Representations of physical disks (such as LUNs) v A shared network for GPFS communications allowing a single network view of the configuration. A single network, a LAN or a switch, is used for GPFS communication, including the NSD communication. The strengths of GPFS GPFS is a powerful file system offering: v Shared file system access among GPFS clusters v Improved system performance on page 2 v File consistency on page 3 v High recoverability and increased data availability on page 3 v Enhanced system flexibility on page 3 v Simplified storage management on page 4 v Simplified administration on page 4 Shared file system access among GPFS clusters GPFS allows users shared access to files in either the cluster where the file system was created or other GPFS clusters. Each site in the network is managed as a separate cluster, while allowing shared file system access. When multiple clusters are configured to access the same GPFS file system, Open Secure Sockets Layer (OpenSSL) is used to authenticate and check authorization for all network connections.
