Hi Andrew,

Much of this information is notes and not in a finished format, so it's a problem of how much time we have.

The other issue is contributing to the manual is somewhat cumbersome as you have to submit patches - https://wiki.hpdd.intel.com/display/PUB/Making+changes+to+the+Lustre+Manual+source

The bar there is a bit higher - we have to be pretty confident the information that's added is correct, know if it's just for some versions of lustre, and so on. As opposed to simply "here are our notes that work for us".

I will try to review what we have and if anything looks really incorrect or missing in the lustre manual we will attempt to issue a patch.

I think in general the lustre manual is correct, but not always sufficient. I think the process does make sure incorrect stuff doesn't go in at least, but makes it hard to add information.

Hi Scott,

Great job! Would you consider merging with the standard Lustre docs?

    Hello,

    At UW SSEC my group has been using Lustre for a few years, and
    recently Lustre with ZFS as the back end file system. We have found
    the Lustre community very open and helpful in sharing information.
    Specifically information from various LUG and LAD meetings and the
    mailing lists has been very helpful.

    With this in mind we would like to share some of our internal
    documentation and notes that may be useful to others. These are
    working notes, so not a complete guide.

    I want to be clear that the official Lustre documentation should be
    considered the correct reference material in general. But this
    information may be helpful for some -

    Topics that I think of particular interest may be lustre zfs install
    notes and JBOD monitoring.
