Hi,
I am very interested in finding out how to move co-located MGS to separate
disk. I will be moving my MDTs to new hardware soon and I would like to
separate MGS from MDT. I will be grateful for some info on this subject
please.
Many thanks,
Wojciech

If you have multiple MDTs on the same MDS node (i.e. multiple Lustre
filesyste

Yeah.

Very little. I think we have discussed here that 100MB should be l
A post a few days back recommended that the MGS be placed on its own
disk for all but "toy" setups I think was the comment.
How much space does the MGS require? Is it based on the number of
hosts? Or just the number of lustre file systems (we expect only 1
but maybe more in future).
