1. Introduction
The Lustre file system is a scalable, secure, robust, and highly-available cluster file system that
addresses I/O needs, such as low latency and extreme performance, of large computing
clusters.
Lustre Clusters
Lustre clusters contain three kinds of systems:
File system clients, which can be used to access the file system.
Object storage servers (OSS), which provide file I/O service.
Metadata servers (MDS), which manage the names and directories in the file system.
