I was basing this on info I found in this email thread: http://lists.lustre.org/pipermail/lustre-discuss-lustre.org/2018-February/015302.html I think the 2K/inode ratio listed in the manual may be incorrect (or perhaps someone can point out my mistake). Looking at the lustre source (utils/libmount_utils_ldiskfs.c), the default behavior is determined by this line: bytes_per_inode = inode_size + 1536 So the default bytes per inode is 1K (inode size) + 1.5K = 2.5K Right. In 2.10 the ldiskfs inode size was increased from 512 bytes to 1024 bytes in order to fit the more complex PFL layouts. That increased the total amount of space per inode from 2048 bytes to 2560 bytes. I guess the manual needs to be updated. Cheers, Andreas -- Andreas Dilger Principal Lustre Architect Whamcloud
