Re: distributed filesystem for backup



Hi,

A similar solution to openAFS and with better performance is Coda File System. http://www.coda.cs.cmu.edu/
You can take a look on it.


Cheers

hi all,

i manage a mpi cluster which nodes (on a gigabit private lan) have plently 
free space (~60gigas each one). i'd like to use this free space to backup 
stuff.

i was thinking about to merge the free space into a single logical volume so 
users could copy (rsync, or whatever) their files there.

openafs can do it but i've been told that his performance with big files 
(~1giga) is not good.

do you have any idea what i could use to archive this target ?

thanks ! :)
