== Windows Native Client (WNC) ==

The WNC project is to deliver a port of the Lustre File System client for the Windows operating system. This port is based on Lustre 2.x code. This project will not port the Lustre servers to Windows. It is a port of the Lustre client only.

The Lustre driver for Windows will be based on the [http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/ifskit/default.mspx Windows Installable Filesystem (IFS) Kit].

== Software and Hardware Requirements ==

Windows versions: Windows Server 2008/2008 R2.
Lustre: HEAD code/version 2.x
Supported Networks: Ethernet and IB (TCP/IP only)

==Currently supported features==

=== Basic operations implemented===
1. Lustre client filesystem mount and dismount
2. File creation/open/close/rename/getattr/setattr/deletion
3. Directory enumeration
4. Directory change notification
5. Data reading/writing: cached i/o, direct i/o, mmap i/o
6. Byte range lock/flock

==Future plans==
- GUI tool for management of lustre mounts
- Integration to Windows network drive assignment

==Download and Support==
The alpha/Beta release will only be available via the early access program.

== What is Lustre®? ==

Lustre® is a scalable, secure, robust, highly-available cluster file system. It is designed, developed and maintained by [http://www.clusterfs.com Cluster File Systems, Inc.]

The central goal is the development of a next-generation cluster file system which can serve clusters with 10,000's of nodes, provide petabytes of storage, and move 100's of GB/sec with state-of-the-art security and management infrastructure.

Lustre runs on many of the largest Linux clusters in the world, and is included by CFS's partners as a core component of their cluster offering (examples include HP StorageWorks SFS, and the Cray XT3 and XD1 supercomputers). Today's users have also demonstrated that Lustre scales down as well as it scales up, and runs in production on clusters as small as 4 and as large as 25,000 nodes.

The latest version of Lustre is always available from [http://www.clusterfs.com Cluster File Systems, Inc.] Public Open Source releases of Lustre are available under the GNU General Public License. These releases are [http://www.clusterfs.com/download.html found here], and are used in production supercomputing environments worldwide.

To be informed of Lustre releases, subscribe to the [https://mail.clusterfs.com/mailman/listinfo/lustre-announce lustre-announce mailing list].

Lustre development would not have been possible without funding and guidance from many organizations, including several U.S. National Laboratories, early adopters, and product partners.
