Could be. When we first looked at Levanta, back in the 03-04 time frame, I was very curious about how they did what they claimed. I'd never heard of UnionFS, and they told me that's what their product was based on: UnionFS mounts over NFS.
I don't know what they're doing now, but last we spoke with them, they had pretty thoroughly overhauled their product as part of moving it into the Lin-Tel world. > -----Original Message----- > From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Behalf Of Rob > van der Heij > Sent: Wednesday, April 12, 2006 2:18 PM > To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU > Subject: Re: [LINUX-390] Fw: [LINUX-390] GPFS > > > On 4/12/06, Hall, Ken (GTI) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > IIRC, UnionFS was part of the core of the Levanta "virtual > server" product, when we looked at it in 2003-2004.
