Thrilled to host Lustre Developer Day at @stanford-rc.bsky.social post-LUG 2025! 🌟 With 14+ top organizations like DDN, LANL, LLNL, HPE, CEA, AMD, ORNL, AWS, Google, NVIDIA, Sandia and Jefferson Lab represented, we discussed HSM, Trash Can, and upstreaming Lustre in Linux.

@stanford-rc.bsky.social was proud to host the Lustre User Group 2025 organized with OpenSFS! Thanks to everyone who participated and our sponsors! Slides are already available at srcc.stanford.edu/lug2025/agenda 🤘Lustre! #HPC #AI

Getting things ready for next week's Lustre User Group 2025 at Stanford University!

Join us for the Lustre User Group 2025 hosted by @stanford-rc.bsky.social in collaboration with OpenSFS. Check out the exciting agenda! 👉 srcc.stanford.edu/lug2025/agenda

ClusterShell 1.9.3 is now available in EPEL and Debian. Not using clustershell groups on your #HPC cluster yet?! Check out the new bash completion feature! Demo recorded on Sherlock at @stanford-rc.bsky.social with ~1,900 compute nodes and many group sources! asciinema.org/a/699526

We started it! blocksandfiles.com/2025/01/28/s... Check out my LAD'24 presentation: www.eofs.eu/wp-content/u...

Just another day for Sherlock's home-built scratch Lustre filesystem at Stanford: Crushing it with 136+GB/s aggregate read on real research workload! 🚀 #Lustre #HPC #Stanford

A great show of friendly open source competition and collaboration: the lead developers of Environment Modules and Lmod (Xavier of CEA and Robert of @taccutexas.bsky.social) at #SC24. They often exchange ideas and push each other to improve their tools!

Newly announced at the #SC24 Lustre BoF! Lustre User Group 2025, organized by OpenSFS, will be hosted at Stanford University on April 1-2, 2025. Save the date!

Fun fact: the Georgia Aquarium (nonprofit), next to the Congress center is the largest in the U.S. and the only one that houses whale sharks. I went on Sunday and it was worth it. Just in case you need a break from SC24 this week… 🦈

I always enjoy an update from JD Maloney (NCSA), but even more when it is about using S3 for Archival Storage, something we are deploying at scale at Stanford this year (using MinIO server and Lustre/HSM!)

Our branch of robinhood-lustre-3.1.7 on Rocky Linux 9.3 with our own branch of Lustre 2.15.4 and MariaDB 10.11 can ingest more than 35K Lustre changelogs/sec. Those gauges seem appropriate for Pi Day, no? github.com/stanford-rc/... github.com/stanford-rc/...

Sherlock goes full flash! The scratch file system of Sherlock, Stanford's HPC cluster, has been revamped to provide 10 PB of fast flash storage on Lustre news.sherlock.stanford.edu/publications...

Filesystem upgrade complete! Stanford cares about HPC I/O! The Sherlock cluster has now ~10PB of full flash Lustre scratch storage at 400 GB/s, to support a wide range of research jobs on large datasets! Fully built in-house!
