By transient storage I mean that the data is duplicated across across

OK, thanks.
I thought Andrews FS did that, but didnt see when
looking

Thats going to keep me busy for awhile!
Interesting link. However, NFS, SMB, AFP and NCP are NOT distributed
filesystems. They're

I would love a file system that transparently replicates over several
systems - say 2 - 5.
It doesn't need to amalgamate spare in any way (as BillK requests),
let's just say I just have

I suspect I would be optimistic if I hoped for something so

be problematic to implement. But do you have any suggestions?

I set up an openmosix cluster once using dfs I think. It replicated

One smalll thing to add: If you decide to use it, there's a Howto under
http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/OpenAFS. Do NOT use the one from gentoo.org, it's
old, outdated and partly
Currently I have around 3 terrabytes of storage across a number of
gentoo machines (4 at the moment) - at any one time 1/2 to 1 terrabyte
is unused, but mostly in scattered chunks. Some space is exported via
NFS and samba for backups and shared files.
