Lustre devel - Apr 2011 - Lustre Windows Native Client

Hi there,

I''m looking at a Lustre client for Windows. I find a reference here at
http://wiki.lustre.org/index.php/Windows_Native_Client. However, I
can''t
find how to participate the "early access program" anywhere.

Do you know where I can find binary/source code for Lustre Windows Native
Client? I heard that this project is discontinued so I hope we can take this
on and continue working on it.

Thanks
Yiding

Yiding,

 

Windows Native Client is closed-source.  It''s owned by Oracle

and they have all the rights over it.

 

If all you are interested in is accessing Lustre from Windows,

your best bet will be using Samba to export Lustre over CIFS.

Cheers, 
                   Eric
