A short report since some expressed interest in getting any updates: I checked into the docs for Oracle's OCSF2 starting here
http://oss.oracle.com/projects/ocfs2/ Its userland is included in recent Debian and kernel modules in recent versions of Linux. It looks fairly straight-forward to set up but a few things make me shy: - I seems geared to low numbers of clients (<10). The number must be preset (although can be increased later). - It does not seem to allow for a single image to span multiple servers or even multiple partitions (yes, LVM solves that second one). - Although it isn't high on my list, it also seem to provide no redundancy. Except for what is probably better handling of downed servers, I don't see much benefit beyond just using NFS. So, I'm still shopping. -Brett. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
