Web servers are mostly read-only, so unless your web servers are going
to do a lot of writing to shared storage I would simply use rsync to a
local disk in each server, or use NFS, even NFS and heartbeat for
redundancy will be 100 times simpler to setup and maintain.

I think it'd be much easier if you just replicate the data between
the servers with rsync or something. GFS sounds like way overkill
for a couple of web servers.

my impression is GFS requires shared storage, I believe there
are ways around it, but take a look at this for setting up GFS
for use with NFS
iSCSI provides the basic foundation needed by GFS for shared storage, so the
OP is good for that. GFS, however, is not exactly a simple technology to

OCSF2 over iSCSI is a good option to look at, too. There is also gluster.
But NFS is going to be the mainstream approach with the best support and

Maybe you're right that GFS would be overkill -- I know you have to
We currently have a MD3000i with an iSCSI LUN shared out to our apache web
server. We are going to add another apache web server into the mix using
LVS to load balance, however, I am curious how well iSCSI handles file
locking and data integrity. I have the iSCSI partition formatted as ext3.
