<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:windowtext">For suppose, there are 4 OSTs (5 OSS), no striping. And the no. of clients are 50.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:windowtext">Will the OSS, picks different OSTs automatically when all the clients starts requesting for storage, and will there be evenly distribution of load?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:windowtext">And on top of that, can this be a good configuration? I must say we are trying to replace Netapps NFS solution with Lustre.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
