PVFS version 2, first try, part 2

The next step is to propagate the config on the nodes (compute-00-00, compute-00-01, compute-00-02). The installer is not part of the server pool (will copy the fs-conf file on clients only later).

We want a rc script to start the server, so just edit the one provided in the example directory:

cp examples/pvfs2-server.rc examples/pvfs2-server

When submitting an openmpi job through lava on a cluster that is IB enabled (OFED), you will probably see this kind of error:
