    Introduction to PC Operating Systems Operating System Concepts 8th Edition Written by: Abraham Silberschatz, Peter Baer Galvin and Greg Gagne John Wiley & Sons, Inc. ISBN: 978-0-470-12872-5 Chapter 2 Operating-System Structure The design of a new operating system is a major task. It is important that the goals of the system be well defined before the design begins. These goals for the basis for choices among various algorithms and strategies. What can be focused on in designing an operating system • Services that the system provides • The interface that it makes available to users and programmers • Its components and their interconnections Operating-System Services The operating system provides: • An environment for the execution of programs • Certain services to programs and to the users of those programs. Note: (services can differ from one operating system to another) A view of operating system services user and other system programs GUI batch command line user interfaces system calls program I/O file Resource communication accounting execution operations systems allocation error protection detection services and security operating system hardware Operating-System Services Almost all operating systems have a user interface. Types of user interfaces: 1. Command Line Interface (CLI) – method where user enter text commands 2. Batch Interface – commands and directives that controls those commands are within a file and the files are executed 3. Graphical User Interface – works in a windows system using a pointing device to direct I/O, using menus and icons and a keyboard to enter text. Operating-System Services Services Program Execution – the system must be able to load a program into memory and run that program.

  • A Study of Failure Recovery and Logging of High-Performance Parallel File Systems
    1 A Study of Failure Recovery and Logging of High-Performance Parallel File Systems RUNZHOU HAN, OM RAMESHWAR GATLA, MAI ZHENG, Iowa State University JINRUI CAO, State University of New York at Plattsburgh DI ZHANG, DONG DAI, North Carolina University at Charlotte YONG CHEN, Texas Tech University JONATHAN COOK, New Mexico State University Large-scale parallel file systems (PFSes) play an essential role in high performance computing (HPC). However, despite the importance, their reliability is much less studied or understood compared with that of local storage systems or cloud storage systems. Recent failure incidents at real HPC centers have exposed the latent defects in PFS clusters as well as the urgent need for a systematic analysis. To address the challenge, we perform a study of the failure recovery and logging mechanisms of PFSes in this paper. First, to trigger the failure recovery and logging operations of the target PFS, we introduce a black- box fault injection tool called PFault, which is transparent to PFSes and easy to deploy in practice. PFault emulates the failure state of individual storage nodes in the PFS based on a set of pre-defined fault models, and enables examining the PFS behavior under fault systematically. Next, we apply PFault to study two widely used PFSes: Lustre and BeeGFS. Our analysis reveals the unique failure recovery and logging patterns of the target PFSes, and identifies multiple cases where the PFSes are imperfect in terms of failure handling. For example, Lustre includes a recovery component called LFSCK to detect and fix PFS-level inconsistencies, but we find that LFSCK itself may hang or trigger kernel panicswhen scanning a corrupted Lustre.

When used in combination with NIS, it facilitates users’ logging in from any machine on the network and finding the same environment, home directories, and mailboxes. NFS is used to save disk space in a number of ways. All files that are static in nature can be shared on a network.
