[Lustre-discuss] Lustre drawback

[Marco]

Hello everybody,

at the following pages:

http://www.rit.edu/~rc/docs/Survey_of_Clustered_Parallel_File_Systems_004_LANL.ppt
http://www.intel.com/cd/ids/developer/asmo-na/eng/dc/tools/threading/238284.htm?page=2

I read:

"[...] Currently, one additional drawback to Lustre is that a Lustre
client cannot be on a server that is providing OSTs. This solution is
being worked on and may be available soon. [...]"

Is that currently true? I mean, the client cannot be run on an OST
server yet?

Thank you,
Marco
