Well, OK, but I'm sure, AFS is not for me.

There are a relatively small cluster, it's aroung ~10TB right now. It has many type of directories, Some of them are static, they have only a few changes, and also they are smalls one. And there are a Projects directory with more directorries. These are the big ones and these can grow up to the size 4-5-6 TB. Unfortunately I cannot split them to different partitions (volumes) because I don't know, which part of it will grow up.

So AFS would be great, but at least it should handle bigger volumes than 2 TB.

The advantage over Lustre will be the native Windows client (although I still cannot disable crypt to speed up it) and kernel doesn't need any 3rd party patch.


Lustre is fast, but for us it's too fast and not so flexible as we would like to see it.


Thanks for all,
