I've been messing around with "glusterfs" and it's pretty cool.I build 3 machine running RHEL7.2 each with an extra 250GB disk.I then setup a filesystem that stripes across all three machines.So it looks like a single 750GB filesystem. Over gigE I'm seeing okay performance ~50MB/s.Cool stuff. Next on my list of filesystems to play with it Lustre.Tim.--I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".
