[Lustre-discuss] Hotspots

[Mark Day]

Hi all,

Does anyone have tips on dealing with 'hotspots' in a Lustre
filesystems? We've recently noticed some large loads caused by a large
number of clients hitting a single 'small' file at the same time.
Something like a NetApp FlexCache would seem to be a solution for this
but that's obviously proprietary.

We're currently using 1.8.3

tia, Mark.
