Sun is supposed to have work ongoing on clustered zfs, but is also supposed to be out in the 2+ year timeframe.
I for one would love if someone involved in this work would give a little bit of visibility into the effort and possibly how community members could help, if one was sufficiently talented and inclined. thanks, paul -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Thomas Roach Sent: Wed 2/28/2007 9:23 AM To: zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org Subject: [zfs-discuss] Re: Cluster File System Use Cases I'm an Oracle DBA and we are doing ASM on SUN with RAC. I am happy with ASM's performance but am interested in Clustering. I mentioned to Bob Netherton that if Sun could make it a clustering file system, that helps them enable the grid further. Oracle wrote and gave OCFS2 to the Linux Kernel. Since Solaris is GPL too and CDDL (Correct me if Im wrong) then couldn't they take OCFS2 and port it into Solaris? Any chance at adding Clustering to ZFS? Just to see it and play with it would be fun. ZFS is open source so if someone cares to write their own clustering file system, they can : ) This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
