Charmed operator for the Lustre parallel file system.

This charm deploys and manages the Lustre parallel file system.

This single charm provides all Lustre server components: MGS (Management Server), MDS (Metadata Server), and OSS (Object Storage Server) and intelligently provisions each. Storage targets are automatically set up as ZFS-backed pools and datasets. LNet is initialized, providing the network layer.

It meets the need for a standard, reproducible deployment of Lustre within a Juju environment.

It is useful for HPC and data-intensive teams looking for a high-throughput, scalable, distributed file system.

The charm is a core component of Charmed HPC. For more information about Charmed HPC, view the full documentation.
