Check out G4U (NetBSD based)
The only problem I can see here is that multiple parallel reads will
have serious performance impacts, thus greatly increasing the cloning of
the disk.
The solution with dd, tee and netcat would just daisy chain the copy
across the network which would be way faster.
Now all you need is G4U to operate in a multicast manner like Symantec
Ghost Corporate Edition, and your transfer speed wouldn't reduce with
each additional client (eg. 100mbps for 1 client, 50mbps each for 2
clients, 33.3mbps each for 3 clients, ...)
Add FEC to the multicast, and you can constantly stream the data, and
not have to worry about dropped segments as much...
Can you explain this?
