 +I'm reluctantly giving up on beegfs, especially v6.1, it simply works flaky. In the admon gui I can see 2 storage nodes, 4 storage objects, 4 meta servers with clients installed on all meta. /mnt/beegfs is there and content can be created. Then I mirror storage nodes, all is fine. Then I mirror meta servers and the mirrors set up, enabling mirrormd states success. Then the whole environment hangs on /mnt/beegfs.  My sense is helperd is not communication well in a private network environment with no DNS and does not consult /etc/hosts. But I have nothing to back that up with, so I can fix it.
 +
 +Back to adding more XFS into my cluster, I'll wait a few more versions.
