As Miles said, Red Hat Resilient Storage is GFS2, which usually requires a
SAN back-end (and as the name says, it's usually used for "Resilient
Storage" not "Scale-out Storage"). I think Red Hat's more
recent acquisition GlusterFS might be a better fit for you, they have
productized it as Storage Software Appliance and Virtual Storage Appliance.

You can get GlusterFS from gluster.org, or SRPMs for the Red Hat appliances
on RH's FTP site.
