Abstract
In general, embodiment relate to a method for provisioning a plurality of client application nodes in a distributed system using a management node, the method comprising: creating a file system in a namespace; associating the file system with a scale out volume; mounting the file system on a metadata node in the distributed system, wherein mounting the file system comprises storing a scale out volume record of the scale out volume; storing file system information for the file system in a second file system on the management node, wherein the file system information specifies the file system and the metadata node on which the file system is mounted; wherein storing the file system information triggers distribution of the file system information to at least a portion of a plurality of client application nodes.
