Riyaz,

There is a project at the University of Minnesota to implement a complete file system utilizing OSDs conforming to the T10 object disk specification. See

 http://www.dtc.umn.edu/disc/research.shtml#object
 
http://www-users.cs.umn.edu/~jjeong/publications/international-conference/DISC-OSD.pdf

That's the only (open) project specifically following the T10 OSD spec that I'm aware of. If you're not concerned about T10, you might also be interested in Ceph (http://ceph.sourceforge.net/).

I'm sorry, I really have no idea what any of that means. At first guess, that should probably mean "no" to your questions, but I will pass this on to the Lustre mailing list to see if anyone else knows anything about it.

Hello  Nathaniel,

Thanks for the information.We have gone through documents available at
given location.But we are not able to get answers for few  queries on OSD,
mentioned earlier.
    - Does this implementation follow  T10 OSD specification
    - Support for commands,more specifically, does it support collection
      objects
    - supported security methods

We have team of students working in our storage lab.We are planning to
work in OSD technologies.Our idea is "Hierarchical Capability Mapping
Model" which is about Content aware Capability generation.We are searching
for existing OSD system implemented according to T10 OSD spec.

Can we contribute to Lustre and extend it for our model?

Thanks and Regards,
Riyaz Shiraguppi

Hello Nathaniel,

            I am doing research in Object based storage technology as
part of my thesis of work at IIT Kanpur.

I want to know about OST and OBD simulator implementation of Lustre.

I have few queries,

            -  is it possible to use Lustre OBD simulator as OSD
target for other OSD initiators (such as OpenSource OSD initiator)?

            -  Do Lustre OBD simulator implementation follow latest
OSD specification document?

            -  What are supported OSD commands?

            -  supported OSD security methods?

            -  Source files for OBD simulator



Can you please share any information or document about Lustre OSD
simulator implementation?





Thanks.

Riyaz Shiraguppi
