Upgrading was a disaster on Linux. It appears the new version +was trashing the boot block in Linux, and so nodes were not booting +after a cvsupd run. + + +*** mountd/exports - Sep 17 2001 - Needs to be fixed + +Reported by Matt on Sep 17 2001, but actually a known bug with the +exports_setup script and the current mountd/kernel impl, which wipes +out all mounts before installing the new set. This causes transient +failures in NFS access from the testbed nodes since the mounts become +momentarily invalid. + + +*** Batch Mode Nots - Sep 18 2001 - Needs to be fixed + +Reported by Mike. + +Nit: experiment create date in Experiment Info "header" is not set. +Is this field meaningless or just not filled in correctly? + +Nit: there are two "header" tables shown +I assume this is bacause the batch code prints out a header and then calls +the regular experiment info script to do the rest. Anyway, the second table +is missing lots of date info as well. + +Nit: web page for expr takes forever to show the nodes that were allocated. +For a regular experiment, the allocated nodes show up almost immediately, +presumably as soon as assign is done. For a batch experiment, it seems to +take minutes. I can go out and look at assign.log and see that nodes have +been assigned almost right away, they just doesn't wind up in the report +(the DB?) for awhile.
