Thanks Rayson for your response.

The EBS contains only two files in in. and is attached an nfs mounted by
starcluster start process.
it seems that home , opt and data again are linked under /data/testme ( on
master it all looks good )


On the *master* I am getting the following ( as expected):

*root at master:~# ls -l /data/*

*total 4*

*drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 May 31 03:56 testme*

*root at master:~# ls -l /data/testme/*

*total 0*

*-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 May 31 03:37 ronen2.txt*

*-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 May 30 20:13 ronen.txt*


On the node side when running ls -l I am getting the following :

*root at node001:~# ls -l /data/*

*total 4*

*drwxr-xr-x 26 root root 4096 May 31 11:35 testme*

*root at node001:~# ls -l /data/testme/*

*ls: cannot access /data/testme/data: Too many levels of symbolic links*

*total 8*

*d????????? ? ?    ?       ?            ? data*

*drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 May 31 11:35 home*

*drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 May 31 11:35 opt*


The EBS was created from a snapshot.
Thanks
Ronen
