[evla-sw-discuss] EVLA lustre metadata server

[James Robnett]

   Slight change of plans.  Martin caught me just before the 9:30
meeting and said Lustre was beginning to behave oddly.

   I went ahead and power cycled the MDS server and it seems fine
now.  I currently see no reason to believe the MDS issue was related
to the cbe-node-6 issue, they might be but there's no evidence that
suggests it other than coincidence.
