[lustre-discuss] Limit to number of OSS?

[Degremont, Aurelien]

Hello all!

This doc from the wiki says "Lustre can support up to 2000 OSS per file system" (http://wiki.lustre.org/Lustre_Server_Requirements_Guidelines).

I'm a bit surprised by this statement. Does somebody has information about the upper limit to the number of OSSes?
Or what could be the scaling limitator for this number of OSS? Network limit? Memory consumption? Other?

Thanks

Aurélien
