I believe it is OK for some simple functional testing, but not production, or 
working with large datasets. 

OSTs and MDTs can coexist, and I believe OSTs and Clients can coexist 
relatively peacefully, but MDTs and Clients are a bad mix.

Subject: [lustre-discuss] Coexistence of Luster client and server on a single 
machine

Hello,

some time ago I asked whether it is possible to run lustre server (OSD) and 
client (mount -t lustre) on the same machine. Somewhere close to Lustre 1.3.x, 
the answer was not, such setup is not recommended due to VM pressure from 
client and server.

Is there anything new with current mainline Lustre version? So, can I mount my 
lustre fs on the same server that is used as OSD or MTS without harm?
