I am setting up a cluster of freebsd systems for websites on which downtime= is=20 unacceptable. Everything is redundant and will failover as soon as one of t= he=20 components fails, the only single point of failure is the data storage. What I'm looking for is a network filesystem for which I have 2 servers and= =20 multiple clients. My requirements are that if one of the data servers fails= =20 the clients will not notice this or if they will they'll only notice this f= or=20 a minute and that these servers will synchronize the data between them. I would prefer to keep these 2 servers on FreeBSD. Are there any solutions for my problem? Thanks in advance. Daniel=20 =2D-=20 Quanza Engineering B.V.
