[Lustre-discuss] lustre as a shared filesystem for vmware?

[Kevin Kelly]

Jay -

 

Do you need to use ESX? ESX can use images (instead of block devices)
but the client is still an issue.

 

We have used Lustre as a shared file system for VMware Server (GSX).
Since that product relies on a host, you can set up the Lustre client
and get it working.

 

Also - the distro of Linux can impact your success - Suse seems to have
an easier time with it.
