Note: The content on this page reflects the state of design of a Lustre feature at a particular point in time and may contain outdated information.
Deployments
Multiple Lustre features have significant overlap because they involve migration of file system objects:
- HSM
- Space rebalancing
- Data migration
- Caches for Lustre proxy services
- Server Network Striping rebuild
- 3rd party IO
The architecture under consideration will target re-use of components.
Software Subsystem Decomposition
Migration
Migration enables an initiator to request that file data is read from one location and stored in another.
- 3rd Party IO - A node requests through a lustre client that data can be read/written through a 3rd party transport
- the node gives {R,W}, offset, length, and a transport id, and transport data to a Lustre client
- the Lustre client decodes the ranges of the file that reside on OSS nodes and forwards corresponding range descriptors in the file and in the objects to the OSS nodes
- the OSS nodes prepare pages for the IO corresponding to the object ranges that need to read/written.
- the OSS calls a 3pio_init(transport id, object range_desc, file_range_desc, transport_data, &3pio_fini, cb_data). There are rules
- the 3rd party transport
