The templates provided here can be further customized by setting parameters in the CloudFormation console when creating a new stack. There are numerous parameters to this template, but to get started you only need to set the KeyName to your ssh-key, and set the LustreAZ to be specific Availability Zone in the region you are using. The remaining default values to get a small Lustre filesystem and two test clients. The filesystem is not persistent, and is deleted when the stack is deleted.
