These number have held fairly steady for the last few years and demonstrates Lustre's unparalleled (pun intended) ability to continually scale with the largest systems in the world. Congratulations to the Lustre Group at Sun and many thanks to our vibrant community of users and OEMs who have contributed to this success.

This problem is related to the OSS read cache feature that has been introduced in 1.8.0. This can happen when a bulk read or write request is aborted due to the client being evicted or because the data transfer over the network has timed out. More details are available in bug 20560: https://bugzilla.lustre.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20560 A patch is under testing and will be included in 1.8.1.1. Until 1.8.1.1 is available, we recommend to disable the OSS read cache feature. This feature can be disabled by running the two following commands on the OSSs: # lctl set_param obdfilter.*.writethrough_cache_enable=0 # lctl set_param obdfilter.*.read_cache_enable=0 This has to be done each time an OST is restarted.

Sun works diligently with its partners to ensure that the lustre.org releases are proven in production on a range of hardware at major Lustre sites such as LLNL and ORNL. I'm pleased to announce a new contributor to the Lustre community: ClusterStor Inc, a company founded in early 2009, has signed Sun's Lustre Contributor Agreement, enabling us to work together to exchange Lustre patches and new features. http://wiki.lustre.org/index.php/Contribution_Policy The Contributor Agreement is an important part of Sun's community collaboration. We have these agreements in place with many of our long- standing partners and users, which has enabled rapid innovation for Lustre on world leading HPC systems. Sun looks forward to working with ClusterStor and all our development partners to advance the state of the art in scalable file systems through the lustre.org community forum. Please look there for many on- going improvements and up-coming news about our new developer program.

LUG 2010 is a unique opportunity for users to get advice and answers about specific Lustre implementations from Lustre developers, community engineers and users. Any and all people using or interested in Lustre are welcome to attend. Conference attendees will have access to experts and peers sharing their real-world experiences using Lustre. LUG 2010 will include updates on community development projects, Birds of a Feather sessions, demos and tutorials, and offer many opportunities to meet with the Lustre development team and discuss upcoming enhancements and capabilities. LUG 2010 will be held at the beautiful Seascape beach resort and conference center on Monterey Bay, California (http://seascaperesort.com). *Call for Presentations - LUG 2010* Lustre users are invited to submit an abstract to be considered for presentation at LUG 2010. Presentations are generally 30 minutes in length, but can be 1 hour if needed. It is not necessary to submit a technical paper, just an abstract of your proposed talk and then slides for the talk itself. This is your opportunity to contribute to the Lustre community by sharing your knowledge and lessons learned from Lustre deployments. The deadline to submit presentation abstracts is February 15, 2010. For questions or to submit a presentation abstract, contact Dan Ferber (Daniel.Ferber at sun.com). *Lustre Advanced User Seminar* The Lustre Advanced User Seminar will be offered on April 14, 2010, before the User Group meeting. This seminar is designed for senior systems administrators, engineers and integrators needing more comprehensive knowledge of Lustre Administration and Troubleshooting techniques. To receive maximum value from this seminar, completion of Administering Lustre-based Clusters (CL-400) and/or prior experience administering Lustre is strongly recommended. Space is limited and registration fee discounts will be offered for LUG attendees. To register for LUG 2010 and the Lustre Advanced User Seminar, visit our registration page at http://LUG2010.org See you at LUG 2010!

Happy downloading! -- The Lustre Team -- From johann at sun.com Wed Dec 9 12:46:47 2009 From: johann at sun.com (Johann Lombardi) Date: Wed, 09 Dec 2009 13:46:47 +0100 Subject: [Lustre-announce] WARNING: short read while accessing file >4GB on 32-bit client Message-ID: <20091209124647.GB555@lore> Hi all, A bug impacting 32-bit lustre clients has been identified in the most recent 1.8 releases. This issue manifests itself as a short read from files larger than 4GB. The problem is that, on the read path, the lustre client stores the file size temporarily in a 32-bit variable (this happens only when a glimpse is necessary). When an application then tries to read beyond the 4GB offset, variable overflow occurs, resulting in a truncated read returned to the application. To be clear, this is a client side issue and the file is not at all corrupted on disk. 64-bit clients are not impacted by this problem. This regression was introduced in 1.8.1 and will be resolved in 1.8.2 so also affects 1.8.1.1. Releases 1.8.0.1 and prior (including 1.8.0) are unaffected. A patch is available in bug 21506. Best regards, Johann From Peter.Bojanic at Sun.COM Wed Dec 9 16:10:02 2009 From: Peter.Bojanic at Sun.COM (Peter Bojanic) Date: Wed, 09 Dec 2009 11:10:02 -0500 Subject: [Lustre-announce] Lustre mailing list moderation Message-ID: Folks, We've received a couple of questions recently about the list moderation controls on lustre-discuss and lustre-devel. I'd like to clarify things for you all. We actually took this step some time ago after some offensive spam was posted to the list, just before last year's LUG. Moderation is required only the _first_ time that a new account posts in order for our administrators to verify that it's a legitimate user and not a spammer. Thereafter posts are completely unmoderated. While this does mean that new members of our community have a slight delay before their first postings goes through, we feel that it's an acceptable trade-off to prevent the list becoming clogged with spam.
