As is commonly known, next week is SuperComputing - SC06 in Tampa, Florida. Given the proximity of Lustre-admins, some of us thought it would be useful to hold a Birds-Of-a-Feather (BOF) focused on deploying Lustre. If you will be at SC06 and are interested in meeting other Lustre admins, please consider yourself invited. Due to scheduling deadlines this event has not been registered as an official SC-BOF, so you will not find it in the program. It will be held off-site at the Marriott Waterside hotel, an easy walk from the Convention center. I will try to place appropriate notices on message boards in the conference center (which you should check if you plan to attend, in case of change). What: Lustre BOF Where: Tampa Mariott Waterside - Meeting room #7 When: Tuesday, November 14th 8:00-10:00am Why: Learn how sites are deploying Lustre; meet those doing the heavy lifting Finally, I have room for an additional presentation. If you would like to present your activities, or have questions/comments about this event please contact: Brent Gorda at bgorda@llnl.gov (USA: 925-422-5753). Please spread the word, and I hope to see you in Tampa. Brent Gorda LLNL -- -- LLNL Advanced Architectures Brent Gorda bgorda@llnl.gov 925.422.5753
