> HPC systems generally use LustreFS

Or IBM's GPFS / Spectrum Scale. Same deal, really, although GPFS is a more complete package.

Is it though? IBM hates GPFS and has been trying to kill it off since its initial release, but every time it tries the government (by NSF/tertiary proxy) stuffs more money its mouth. It lives despite being hated by the parent. Both GPFS and Lustre have their warts.
