Message-ID: <20000612150937.C36426@bender.physast.uga.edu> Reply-To: Andreas Schweitzer Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.6i Sender: owner-freebsd-fs@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi everybody, I am looking for a parallel filesytem for FreeBSD. Is there such a thing ? I couldn't find anything. I am thinking of something like IBM's gpfs or one of the projects like gfs (http://www.globalfilesystem.org) or pvfs (http://www.parl.clemson.edu/pvfs/). gfs seemed to have FreeBSD support. Does anybody know anything about it ? I.e. I have a cluster and want to spread a filesystem and especially the (large) files in that filesystem over all nodes. Coda seems to keep single files on a single machine (besides the filesize limitations). Thanks !
