[Lustre-discuss] VMWare or VirtualBox..

Hi Robert,

You're likely to find that performance will suffer when run under a VM.
Lustre makes pretty extensive use of all the resources at its disposal, and
having to compete with physical devices under a VM that runs as an ordinary
user process is more than likely going to lead to resource deadlocks.

I wouldn't suggest running Lustre under VMs.

cheers,
Klaus
