[lustre-discuss] OSS on compute node

[Fedele Stabile]

I have to study in detail beegfs,
 Is it usable on a little HPC Cluster?

In theory it should work, but may have some performance issues though.

This idea is also similar to BeeGFS BeeOND (BeeGFS on-demand).

Should run computer(client) nodes in VM, or container, to avoid any
users' app to crash the whole node intentionally or not.

Best,

Feng
