Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
Could anyone shed some light on the following questions? |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
I have 5 nodes, (running gentoo) |
| 6 |
265mb ram, 9.1gb 10krpm scsi, (thus, high speed local storage) |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
And one Fileserver. |
| 9 |
512mb, 2x 200gb sata (raid) |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
Now, i'd love to be able to host 200gb of files trough the apache's on the |
| 12 |
nodes, |
| 13 |
They should cache everything on their local disk (as much as possible), to |
| 14 |
acchieve HIGH speeds. |
| 15 |
But they would also need to be able to fetch other files from the slower |
| 16 |
200gb filesrever. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Can lustre do this? |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
I can build some copy script that places the most often used files on local |
| 21 |
storage, The rest could then be symlinks to the NFS fileserver but i'd hope |
| 22 |
there is a better sollution. |
| 23 |
