Alex, If I'm not mistaken what you are needing is what is referred to as shared-qfs. Check out: http://opensolaris.org/os/project/samqfs/What_are_QFS_and_SAM/ and I've CC'd the sam-qfs discussions list. These folks should be able to answer all of your questions. --jc --- Jeff Cheeney | OpenSolaris Storage Community | http://opensolaris.org/os/storage | http://blogs.sun.com/icedawn > IMPORTANT: This email remains the property of the Australian Defence > Organisation and is subject to the jurisdiction of section 70 of the CRIMES > ACT 1914.
