Lustre 安装 配置
Lustre is a shared disk file system, generally used for large scale cluster computing. The name Lustre is a portmanteau of Linux and cluster. The project aims to provide a file system for clusters of tens of thousands of nodes with petabytes of storage capacity, without compromising speed or security. Lustre is available under the GNU GPL.
Lustre is designed, developed and maintained by Sun Microsystems, Inc. with input from many other individuals and companies. Sun completed its acquisition of Cluster File Systems, Inc., including the Lustre file system, on October 2, 2007, with the intention of bringing the benefits of Lustre technologies to Sun's ZFS file system and the Solaris operating system.
Lustre file systems are used in computer clusters ranging from small workgroup clusters to large-scale, multi-site clusters. Fifteen of the top 30 supercomputers in the world use Lustre file systems, including the world's fastest supercomputer, the Blue Gene/L at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL). Other supercomputers that use the Lustre file system include systems at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, and Los Alamos National Laboratory in North America, the largest system in Asia at Tokyo Institute of Technology, and the largest system in Europe at CEA.
Lustre file systems can support up to tens of thousands of client systems, petabytes (PBs) of storage and hundreds of gigabytes per second (GB/s) of I/O throughput. Businesses ranging from Internet service providers to large financial institutions deploy Lustre file systems in their datacenters. Due to the high scalability of Lustre file systems, Lustre deployments are popular in the oil and gas, manufacturing, rich media and finance sectors.
