Hi everybody,

I'm thinking about installing 5 groups of 30 pvfs2-systems in a 100Mb/s WAN. 
The reason for this setup is that if one group would fail the remaining 4 
groups will be able to serve the original amount of intended clients. IO-load 
would be 5/4 of the original setup.

All groups share one 5Gb/s connection to the internet.

To get minimal data transferred from the server somewhere on the internet I'm 
thinking about following scenario. Copy a file with 30x100Mb/s = 3Gb/s on 1 
group and then parallel redistribute to the remaining groups.

Any ideas how to do this most efficiently ? I know tee < source > dest0 dest1 
dest2 dest3 dest4 would do this but it's not recursively and wildcards aren't 
accepted. rsync works with wildcards and recursively but how to get it done 
parallel in a way that load on the source group is minimal ?

Suggestions ver welcome

Henk
