Kurt,
To clarify a bit further, the max_create_count is the maximum number of objects
that the MDS might precreate in a batch on an OST if it has a high create rate.
They are not necessarily _simultaneous_ creates.
In the recent IO-500 run, Cambridge sustained 1.78M creates/sec for 5 minutes
Hello Kurt,
max_create_count is a tunable per OST. It controls how many object
pre-creations could be done on each OST, by the MDT. If you set this to 0 for
one OST, no additional object will be allocated there and no new file will have
file stripes on it.
With the appropriate hardware,
