For clients - just different questioons:grid, N/H/k and so for example in my case(may be add something from here if you think that's interesting) Number of storage nodes:11 currently Planned future storage nodes:2-4(LAE one when it stabilizes a little more and at my friends locations at other cities) Max number of nodes per one location(i.e. same physical LAN and/or physically near):4 Number of nodes used as gateway:1(more planned real soon) Access method to grid used: tahoe backup, SSHFS+OSXFUSE, Dokan+Pyfilesystem Host OSes used: Windows Server 2008R2,Windows 7(does not have it's own node,only uses pyfilesystem for now),Linux(CentOS 5.5-5.7), Mac OS X 10.7.2 Approximate balanced raw storage space(not accounting for N/k):450 Gb(unbalanced space can be made about 1.5 Tb but only 2 nodes have >1 Tb space so I blocked this) Are they public gateways: No, but I'm looking at lafs-rpg project for making R/O access possible so I just could share files with others this way _______________________________________________ tahoe-dev mailing list [email protected] http://tahoe-lafs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tahoe-dev
