Hello, Since last year NTT designed and implemented sfex, a suite of programs to improve shared disk usage (see linux-ha.org/sfex) which unfortunately didn't attract attention it deserves. I reviewed the code and attached you'll find some comments and some simple changes. One general remark: all programs (sfex_*) are monolithic and, though they are not that big, it would be beneficial to code readers if they were split into more units/functions.
A couple of suggestions on making sfex useful in other contexts were making a quorum plugin and a HBcomm plugin. Did you investigate further these options? Of course, if you agree, we could include sfex into the heartbeat repository. Cheers, Dejan _______________________________________________________ Linux-HA-Dev: Linux-HA-Dev@lists.linux-ha.org http://lists.linux-ha.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-ha-dev Home Page: http://linux-ha.org/
