There are multiple. Lustre (Cluster Filesystems Inc.) and global filesystem 
(RedHat)
can do that. None of them is merged into mainline Linux kernel as of today, the 
open source
community is looking forward to a cleaner soloution.
Oracle cluster filesystem2 (ocfs2) is a hot candidate to be merged in the very 
near future,
because it looks like a pretty clean implementation. The design of ocfs2 is 
similar to
rock-solid extended filesystem family [ext2, ext3], which makes many people 
(including me)
think that it will become the soloution of choice for most people.
