    I am very satisfied with it, and based on your description, it
    seems you should use something like that and something on top of
    the native filesystem to get a cloud storage.

    It's more like a ceph. Data is stored in a distributed way, so
    unlike to zfs you have access to the data even in case of node
    failure (crash, CPU/memory fault etc.) and access is available
    from ANY cluster node.
    As such we store the data and maintain checksums on every node and
    can do periodic scrubbing of the data.


Just to clarify -- this is Parallels own distributed/cloud filesystem, not CEPH or GlusterFS, but similar to. For more info, check the links at https://openvz.org/Parallels_Cloud_Storage#External_links

Setup a cluster using Centos 6.5 64bit, fresh install in KVM instances. I wanted to test functionality not actual speed.

All software was latest as of last night and I followed the quick how to here https://openvz.org/Parallels_Cloud_Storage

Everything works great until I try to create an instance using the command "vzctl create 101 --layout ploop --ostemplate centos-6-x86_64 --private /pcs/containers/101" from the docs.

About one mb of data is written to disk and then it just hangs. The following is output from dmesg

[  360.414242] INFO: task vzctl:1646 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

Even just trying to create a 10k file with dd causes a task to hang. "dd if=/dev/zero of=/pcs/test.junk bs=1k count=10"


Any ideas? Anymore info you would like for debugging.
