I don't suppose you've experimented with Ceph or POHMELFS? I just
Ceph yes a little. Looking forward to it being sufficiently stable to
use in production. POHMELFS, not yet. Looked at it and it looks very
interesting. Wasn't sure of current state.
attempted to build Lustre support for experimenting and remembered
why I avoid it.
:)
I am dealing with interface blocks right now to have a fortran code call
a C code correctly. Ugh... But I understand your pain.
Building GlusterFS is quite easy, and the stacking is quite logical.
Only issues we have run into is that sometimes fuse crashes.
And Lustre already is in an odd spot. One high-level competitor to
Sun uses it, HP. Then there's Cray (where there was some joking
that they could buy SGI at that price and extract revenge)…
I have lots of friends at both places. Sad situation. Cray will grow
and thrive. SGI has basically evaporated. Though I am seeing some of
their technology get open sourced very rapidly.
