No, we have not, I will take a look at it, but my understanding is that lustre 
is for local cluster, like GPFS, which typically are not meant to deal with 
high latency. Have you used lustre? Do you know if:

-it takes care of locking a file for writing form all the other nodes when one 
node opens it for writing

-it replicates the changes to all the nodes as the file is being written (not 
wait for the file to be closed)

Thanks.
