as playground is fine.
even in this type of env , IMHO, u will need to do some raid for 3x2tb ost and mirror for mds
Hope that U have enough memory and cpu power and network for MDS and OST.
these are dedicate for lustre, u need other compute nodes.
regards

My supervisor has this idea and I would like the input of the Lustre community as we are still very new to Lustre.

We have 7 workstations, and the idea was to put into them 3 2TB drives, for a total of 42TB, and set them up as object servers, and another workstation as a meta data server. How feasible is this idea? And I know of the downfalls, what if a student reboots a machine, etc, but baring those events, would this setup work?
