[Lustre-discuss] Lustre developer documentation now available
Dear Lustre Community, The Lustre Group at Sun is pleased to announce the availability of detailed technical documentation for Lustre. This material has existed for some time but was closely guarded intellectual property by the former CFS. In the spirit of making Lustre continually more open, we have been encouraged by Sun execs to make this valuable information available to the Lustre community. Lustre High Level Designs (HLD): http://arch.lustre.org/index.php?title=LustreHLDs Lustre Detailed Level Designs (DLD): http://arch.lustre.org/index.php?title=LustreDLDs Lustre Internals: http://wiki.lustre.org/index.php?title=Lustre_Internals Lustre HLDs and DLDs are available for download from the CVS repository in their original Lyx format. The HLD and DLD wiki pages include CVS download instructions. Additionally, each wiki page has links for the most current design documents available in PDF format. For each PDF, the author and date are listed, along with a synopsis. Over the coming days, we''ll continue to make more of the 2008, 2007 and 2006 HLDs and DLDs available as PDFs on the wiki pages. Note that some of this documentation may be out of date, incomplete, or not yet implemented in Lustre. But it still provides useful reference material for understanding Lustre. The Lustre Internals course was taught a few times in the past year by Peter Braam. We''ve decided that it represents more of a useful knowledge resource than course material. It is our hope that this documentation will contribute to nurturing a stronger and more vibrant development community for Lustre. Cheers, Bojanic
