Jun 23, 2009 · Finally, we need to create the file system: gfs_mkfs -t web1:mygfs -p lock_dlm -j 2 /dev/vg01/web1. The name given in -t must be the name of the cluster, followed by what you want to call this file system. Only members of the web1 cluster will be allowed to mount this file system.

Direct-mount filesystems like gfs2 and ocfs really, really do have scaling bottlenecks. The cross-system file-locking problem, not to mention cross-host cache-coherency, is rather hard to solve and is the major scaling problem. Other clustered file-systems like VMware's VMFS also have "small tens" maximal mount limitations for the same reason.

Shared SAN with FC, iSCSI or one of the more recent additions. In any case they can be expensive to set up and you still need to run a cluster aware file system. Clustered filesystems are a world of pain. For any hope of success you need separate hi speed, low latency networks for cluster communication and data.

Oct 9, 2008 · The StorNext file system is a heterogeneous, shared file system with integrated archive capability. It enables systems to share a high-speed pool of images, media, content, analytical data and other files so they can be processed and distributed rapidly, whether SAN or LAN connected.

I am working on putting together a cluster for openx and had a question with regard to clustered file systems vs rsync. Here is my current setup: -2 workhorse boxes load balanced to serve and count ads (using the "distributed statistics" methodology) These servers would have their own databases that are migrated to the master database every 10 ...
