I can also offer to help if there are any question regarding the ompio code, 
but I do not have the bandwidth/resources to do that myself, and more 
importantly, I do not have a platform to test the new component.

Subject: Re: [OMPI users] CephFS and striping_factor

More specifically, Gilles created a skeleton "ceph" component in this draft 
pull request: https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/pull/11122

If anyone has any cycles to work on it and develop it beyond the skeleton that 
is currently there, that would be great!

Subject: Re: [OMPI users] CephFS and striping_factor

Hi Eric,


Currently, Open MPI does not provide specific support for CephFS.

MPI-IO is either implemented by ROMIO (imported from MPICH, it does not
support CephFS today)

or the "native" ompio component (that also does not support CephFS today).


A proof of concept for CephFS in ompio might not be a huge work for
someone motivated:

That could be as simple as (so to speak, since things are generally not
easy) creating a new fs/ceph component

(e.g. in ompi/mca/fs/ceph) and implement the "file_open" callback that
uses the ceph API.

I think the fs/lustre component can be used as an inspiration.


I cannot commit to do this, but if you are willing to take a crack at
it, I can create such a component

so you can go directly to implementing the callback without spending too
much time on some Open MPI internals

(e.g. component creation).



Cheers,


Gilles
