Hello PVFS2:
Compute Cluster Architecture:
Top most Layer: Frontend+Compute Nodes AS PVFS2_Client
Next Layer: GigE/Infiniband Interconnect
Next Layer: A Metadata Server & Bunch of PVFS I/O
Nodes
Bottom Layer: A Separate Storage array for each I/O
nodes.
With the above architecture in mind, I plan to create
a huge pvfs2-storage pool from all of the storage
mounted on the I/O nodes. This large pvfs2-storage
pool will be mounted on all of the compute nodes and
the front end of the clusters from the PVFS2 I/O
nodes.
I just wanted to get a heads up on this architecture
if any.
I have read FAQ's and more, look forward for any
caveats anyone can think of.
Thank you - í
