Currently I have around 3 terrabytes of storage across a number of gentoo machines (4 at the moment) - at any one time 1/2 to 1 terrabyte is unused, but mostly in scattered chunks. Some space is exported via NFS and samba for backups and shared files.
What I would really like is a file system that would unify these spaces and present them to the network as storage space - ideally with redundant data storage so one or more machines can dissappear and the data is still available. AFS is not quite what I want (or maybe it is, but it doesn't seem to handle transient storage duplication) I have a memory of seeing a beast that does this in the past but cant remember what it is - any suggestions?
