[gpfsug-discuss] Demo

[Scott Fadden]

I developed a demo that shows how the file heat metric can be used to move 
"cool" data from a Flash tier to spinning disk. As visuals it displays a 
speedometer for transaction rate, a chart showing capacity used in each 
tier and total cost of storing the data ($/GiB). 

For a simpler demo maybe the GUI with live performance, maybe a policy on 
lots of files (use a list policy) or something like fileset level 
snapshots.

I’m tasked with coming up with a demo of Spectrum Scale for our customers. 
 Something that shows a little bit of most of the features of Scale.  Does 
anyone have some ideas of “must see” features that might make for a good 
demo?

My thoughts are something like: 

Overview of architecture
NSD Servers, Protocol Servers, Quorum, etc
Show adding a Node to the mix as a client and a server
Show creating a filesystem (and a fileset)
Show copying some files from a client (linux client with GPFS or through a 
filesystem thru protocol nodes)
Show GUI
Show Snapshot

Any other thoughts?
