Did you read the GFS whitepaper? It really works differently from other filesystems with regard to latency and consistency. You'll probably have better success with Lustre (http://www.clusterfs.com/) or RedHat's Global File System (http://www.redhat.com/software/rha/gfs/). If you're looking for a 'cheap, free and easy' solution you can just as well stop right now. :-) -h ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
