We want to create a central location for all zLinux server's user home directory located on a common server (using NFS?) with some method of failover if that server is down. Is there a file system that crosses different servers that can be mounted by one system as the user home file system, and then can fail over to another system if that (NFS holding the Home Directories) server goes down?
Right now as I understand NFS, if we use an NFS to hold user home directories, if the hosting server is taken down, no one can log into any of the other zLinux guests. Can anyone point me to a sample or documentation to resolve this?
