<div>I would start with the simplest setup with three servers</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>One MDS with an MDT/MGS</div>
<div>One OSS with one OST</div>
<div>One client</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Next, expand to 2 OSTs on one OSS, and add a second OSS/OSTs server</div>
<div>Also add a few more clients.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Finally, on the server side, you'll have to learn configuring for redundancy.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Do some functionality testing at each step to make sure you've got a functional filesystem, get familiar with the tools, etc.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">Very new to the lustre world.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am trying to do a test install of lustre on Amazon Web Services Linux Instances.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Just for a test install what configuration of Linux servers should I chose and how many would I need?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is there a quick checklist of all things needed for the install and a short how-to that I can follow.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am going through the documentation, however, any help I can get on this would be great.<o:p></o:p></p>
