InterMezzo is a high availability file system featuring write back caching and disconnected operation. It replicates file trees across multiple systems, one of the systems plays the role of server, the others are clients. InterMezzo recovers from network and server failures. InterMezzo shares many ideas with Coda but is considerably simpler and less fully featured. You can find packages and source for beta 0.93 Linux 2.2 kernels in: ftp://ftp.inter-mezzo.org/pub/intermezzo Documentation is available on the InterMezzo WWW site: http://www.inter-mezzo.org Mailing lists with announcements, discussions etc. are available at: http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/intermezzo Sources for cutting edge versions are available from http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/intermezzo New since the previous release: - We have migrated to "stock" POE from CPAN - Considerable simplification of reconnection code - Minor improvements and feature additions to the kernel code - RPM packages - Minor documentation updates - Improvements to the config tools To reach 1.0 we have the following outstanding issues: - Move forward to ext3 0.05c or later - Better documentation - Conflict detection - Bug fixes Particular thanks go to Shirish Phatak from Tacitus Systems ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) for very persistent debugging and testing. Gord Matzigkeit ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) has build the RPM packages and cleaned up the build environment for this purpose. Many others have contributed significantly. - Peter Braam - Mountain View Data, Inc. NOTE: InterMezzo relies on journal file systems for recovery. This release works with Ext3 and you must compile 0.03b into your kernel, as well as the following 3 lines to be add in linux/kernel/ksyms.c: #include <linux/jfs.h> EXPORT_KSYM(journal-start); EXPORT_KSYM(journal_stop); _______________________________________________ intermezzo-announce mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/intermezzo-announce - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
