Hi, I am considering using ZFS so that multiple clients can "share" the
same filesystem. I know that ZFS does not support a distributed filesystem.
The alternative I am considering is to have a single filesystem
available to many clients using a SAN (iSCSI in this case). However only
one client would mount the ZFS filesystem as read/write while the others
would mount it read-only. For my application, all files are written once
then only ever read or deleted.
Is it the case that when a new file is added (by the writer machine)
that the clients that are mounted read only would see and be able to
read this new file?
Does this apply to soft-link files as well?
Does anyone have experience with such a configuration?
Mike
