Hello, I am looking into setting up a SAN with several web servers that will be clustered. It would be a FC network using Qlogic cards in each of those FreeBSD web servers. It would be about 5+ of those web servers. I want to have the capability to share the same web data across those web servers. I have scorched the entire mailing list and=20 found that there were some work on GFS porting over to FreeBSD. It seems like that it is just all talk and if I am wrong, could you have my head turned over to where I can find out how to enable GFS on those FreeBSD systems. If GFS is out of question, which file system am I recommendeded to attempt to use for this SAN setup? My first thought to use UFS2 and attempt is to allow only one web server to have a write/read access while the reminder would be read only access. That should prevent from lockings that is similar on NFS/NAS. Chris
