Does anyone have any info on when LeoFS is going to have their NFS sharing sorted?

I recall there was was an illumos project for an Federated Filesystem, however, I went to join the project and it was gone!
(was it somewhere else?)

Also, it was Acceptable in the 90s to use automounter and soft-links to fake it.

[Nineties], I've [n]ot the best, I'll take all I can get....

With regards to Automounter if you choose this route something like this may work:

/net/<host_mapped_alias>/<path_to_resource>

Those aliases could be leveraged using NIS/LDAP?/DNS to dynamically do something interesting using hashing or something I imagine but who knows what and how far? (Note: stale file handles USED to be an issue 15 years ago and there was path length limit the bit folks a couple of times but this an EDA env so it may not be an issue)

It's been a while so I don't know how applicable it may be and I don't even know for certain if it is available. It was back then on HP-UX/Redhat/Solaris so if it isn't is may have been excised.

Given the quantity of bandwidth available, how about exposing the individual drives as iSCSI targets then having a single machine expose the lot as an NFS share?

Not that I've done this. Yet.

    Are there solutions that are compatible with SmartOS?

        Distribute - how? In term of a clusterfilesystem with
