While gluster might not be ideal for this, it is the *only* solution I've found that does it all. Do you have any better suggestions?
You may want to look into other fault-tolerant parallel distributed file systems.
Proprietary: Panasas file system. It seem to work fine at our university HPC center.
Open source: POHMELFS (into kernel 2.6.30) and Ceph (into kernel 2.6.34). I have only tried Ceph of those and it was a while ago, around the same time I played around with GlusterFS.
There are others - here is a list on Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_file_systems#Distributed_parallel_fault-tolerant_file_systems --jerker _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list [email protected] http://gluster.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
