Topics: GPFS

Where's the config of GPFS stored?

In file /var/mmfs/gen/mmsdrfs. In a cluster, one node is primary and another node is secondary cluster data server. For a GPFS change, both nodes need to be active. For starting a GPFS node, a least one of the two need to be active (but this is no problem, since GPFS doesn't work with only 1 node).
