Description
(I'm not sure about the issue type for this ticket, please adjust as appropriate.)
As discussed with Peter Jones, we are trying to implement a file system where single clients can achieve >900MB/s write throughput over 10GigE connections. Ideally single 10GigE for the clients but 2x10GigE LACP bonding might be an option. The OSSes will initially have 4x 10GigE LACP bonded links, though for some initial testing we might start with fewer links.
The disk backend has now arrived and this is a sample obdfilter-survey result using all one OST and 4 OSSes, without much tuning on the OSS nodes yet. The OSSes are all running Lustre 2.3.0 on RHEL6.

We have not yet done any tests with clients (in fact the 10GigE network still needs to be configured) but I would like to ask if there is any reason why we should not achieve our goal with this storage hardware.
I will also update the ticket once we've done some tests with clients.
