Are you sure? Have you used GPFS that way? We specifically asked IBM about GPFS (we even run GPFS on a local cluster), and they said they could not do the async rep. with the automatic locking. I will go and dig into the manual, but if you could confirm you have done something like that I'd appreciate. -- Yves. http://www.SollerS.ca/ xmpp:y...@zioup.com _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lopsa.org http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
