suggest looking at that as a fully-supported solution over CTDB w/ SAMBA.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">My name is Shaun Anderson and I work for an IBM Business Partner in Boise, ID, USA. Our main vertical is Health-Care but we do other work in other sectors as well. My experience with GPFS has been via the storage product line (Sonas,
V7kU) and now with ESS/Spectrum Archive.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I stumbled upon SpectrumScale.org today and am glad to have found it while I prepare to implement a cNFS/CTDB(SAMBA) cluster.<o:p></o:p></p>
