[lustre-discuss] Lustre Size Variation after formatiing

[Andreas Dilger]

On an ldiskfs MDT, by default 1/2 of all the space is consumed by inodes. That is fine (good even) because inodes is (or at least was) most of what the MDT stores. All of the file data is stored on the OSTs.

Cheers, Andreas
