You can configure client node disks on a per-image
and per-node basis to create an optional scratch partition to maximize
file system performance. Partition sizes can be fixed or they can
be based on a percentage of total disk size. To do so, you set the
appropriate variables in the /opt/hptc/systemimager/etc/make_partitions.sh file or set the variables in user-defined files with a .part extension.
The procedure that describes how to customize
client node disk partitions is documented in the HP XC System Software Installation Guide.
