[Lustre-discuss] Help needed for an upcoming HPC project

[Mertol Ozyoney]

Hi all;

 

One of our HPC customers will be adding 800 TB of storage to their HPC
environment. 

 

I am in need of some expert advice regarding following questions. 

 

.         I know that some installiations have used Sun thumper X4500's ,
I'd like to learn pro's of cons of using Sun X4500's 

.         If I use X4500 how can I provide redundancy ? What happens if a
node fails and how can I restore the node ?

.         What are the supported backup applications ? (Veritas, legato
etc..) Can we use incremantal backups on lustre ?

 

regards
