[Lustre-discuss] Lustre client and OST on same machine

[Jack David]

Hi All,

I have a small lustre setup having 1 MDS, 2 OSS and all of the three
machine also have lustre client mounted. Once the lustre client knows
about the stripe information of a file, will it directly communicate
to OSS? If yes, is there any optimization possible if lustre client
learns that the data is in the same machine (when acting as OST) ?

Thanks,
J
