Configuring the Lustre File System

Create a combined MGS/MDT file system and two object storage targets (OSTs) to form a file system named temp. Three block devices are used, one for the combined MGS/MDT node and the other two for the OST nodes.

1. Configure the LNet network.

   For details, see LNet Router Config Guide.

2. Create a combined MGS/MDT file system on a block device and mount it.
