Re: Suggestions for shared-storage cluster file system
Thanks,
I think I will go with GlusterFS. MooseFS looks interesting, but
maintaining a package outside the repo/cloud archive is not something I
want to deal with.
Along the same lines... is it possible to mount a GlusterFS volume in
pacemaker? I have tried both ocf:heartbeat:Filesystem and
ocf:redhat:netfs.sh without much luck. I have managed to get the service
started with upstart though.
Thanks,
Sam
