Hi Weikuan,

 Thanks for sending the ADIO driver! I look forward
to testying it out.

Thanks again!

Hi,

I have cleaned up quite a lot on the ADIO driver posted earlier. Attached is a cleaner patch for mpich2-1.0.5p4. It is also available here:
http://ft.ornl.gov/projects/io/src/adio-lustre-mpich2-v02.patch

Some highlights for the new patch.
 o Removal of dead/redundant code
 o Removal of asynchronous IO piece as it appears outdated
 o Bug fixes for setting Lustre Hints
 o Bug fixes for data sieving
 o Improved Setsize operation with one process calling ftruncate
 o Improved collective IO with domain partitioning on
   Lustre stripe boundary

Todo: (near term)
 o Test/enable striping hints over Cray XT
 o Enable the async IO
 o Enable preallocation

Disclaimer:
 o you are welcome to try the code, but at your own risk.

We look forward your interests and contributions such as testing results, bug reports, and new feature patches. We appreciate any courtesy reference of this work. A little ad on this joint effort, you may direct your inquiries to CFS on this list or folks listed on another website here: http://ft.ornl.gov/projects/io/

Andreas and Wangdi: please feel free to post it on CFS sites.

Thanks,

 I am trying to find information about the performance
of ROMIO (the MPI-IO implementation developed at Argonne
National Laboratories) on the Lustre file system. Is
ROMIO widely used on Lustre, or are there proprietary
implementations of MPI-IO that are used? Does anyone have
information on the performance of ROMIO on Lustre?

There is a Lustre ADIO driver currently under development.  A driver
for an older version of MPICH is available in the lustre/contrib
directory of the sources.  I'll let the involved parties (Weikuan Yu
and Wang Di) give you the full details.

Cheers, Andreas
