The Tusker /work filesystem is running normally. A reboot of the Lustre metadata server (MDS) was required.

The issue on the MDS looked very similar to the performance degradation experienced 2016-09-07. A different process was used to recover the MDS and the logs indicate that no Lustre clients were evicted. The Slurm logs show jobs that ended during the MDS recovery window did so successfully or ran into job time limits.

These are promising log indications that running jobs blocked when interacting with /work and recovered when the MDS returned to service.

We still advise to check your job state if you had running jobs on Tusker as the degraded performance of /work may have impacted jobs that ran into time limits.
