Title
System-Call Based Problem Diagnosis for PVFS
Type
Conference Proceeding
Abstract or Table of Contents
We present a syscall-based approach to automatically diagnose performance problems, server-to-client propagated errors, and server crash/hang problems in PVFS. Our approach compares the statistical and semantic attributes of syscalls across PVFS servers in order to diagnose the culprit server, under these problems, for different file-system benchmarks—dd, PostMark and IOzone—in a PVFS cluster.
