- 4.1 Steps to Installing Lustre - To set up Lustre file system hardware and install and configure the Lustre software, refer the the chapters below in the order listed: - 1. (Required) Set up your Lustre file System hardware. - See Chapter 5: Setting Up a Lustre File System - Provides guidelines for configuring hardware for a Lustre file system including storage, memory, and networking requirements. - 2. (Optional - Highly Recommended) Configure storage on Lustre storage devices. - See Chapter 6: Configuring Storage on a Lustre File System - Provides instructions for setting up hardware RAID on Lustre storage devices. - 3. (Optional) Set up network interface bonding. - See Chapter 7: Setting Up Network Interface Bonding - Describes setting up network interface bonding to allow multiple network interfaces to be used in parallel to increase bandwidth or redundancy. - 4. (Required) Install Lustre software. - See Chapter 8: Installing the Lustre Software - Describes preparation steps and a procedure for installing the Lustre software. - 5. (Optional) Configure Lustre Networking (LNET). - See Chapter 9: Configuring Lustre Networking (LNET) - Describes how to configure LNET if the default configuration is not sufficient. By default, LNET will use the first TCP/IP interface it discovers on a system. LNET configuration is required if you are using Infiniband or multiple Ethernet interfaces. - 6. (Required) Configure Lustre. - See Chapter 10: Configuring Lustre - Provides an example of a simple Lustre configuration procedure and points to tools for completing more complex configurations. - 7. (Optional) Configure Lustre Failover. - See Chapter 11: Configuring Lustre Failover - Describes how to configure Lustre failover using the Heartbeat cluster infrastructure daemon. -
