ALl:
We have in Hillsboro a test rig for our HPC Storage and Archive
Solution,
and are charaterizing performance as I write this. Currently, it's the
SAM-QFS part with multiple QFS data movers.
WHen we finish that part (2-3 weeks), we plan to add the Lustre part
(We're going to need some technical assistance then) and test
several configurations for bandwidth etc.
Net: Stay tuned - We'll have numbers and best practices to implement.

Brennan,
One needs SAM-QFS Linux client on a given node that is a lustre
client. There
can be multiples of these within a cluster.
This client(s) can then move (copy data) between SAM and Lustre.
This has been put in place at a number of places for Sun customers such
as DKRZ in Germany.
This is a very basic solution today and we would like to see a tighter
integration
between the Lustre and SAM development efforts to have this as a more
robust offering and
SAM SW support for newer Linux Kernels.
It is my understanding that this is underway. However for the time
being it will require
the aforementioned type of client.

What is the process for integrating a Lustre+SAMFS solution into an
existing customer environment. The plan is to have CRS build the
Lustre component, but Lustre and SAMFS will need to configured and
integrated into the customer computing environment. I am very
familiar with the SAMFS integration, but not Lustre integration.
Do we have resources in PS to provide the integration? Is this done
by the CFS organization?
Also, a small scale benchmark of the solution may be required. Which
Benchmark center could provide Lustre support?
Thanks,
