So basically you want an independent server which acts as the database server and you want your slave nodes to be able to mount a FS exported off that database server.
This can actually be done really easily - you would basically just want to set up the DB server separately (load the OS independently) and then create an export for your NFS mount, then just modify your slave nodes' /etc/fstab to reflect that. You can do that very exactly with cexec.
If you have questions about any of the steps, please let us know.
Cheers,
Bernard

Hello Everybody.I am currently building a Linux cluster for bioinformatic application and am using OSCAR 2.3.1 for basic image installation. Using this I have successfully managed to run all the slave nodes. What we would like to add is a "database node", which will not be a part of slave nodes but more independent like the master node. The file system will have to be mounted on all the slave nodes but i have doubts about installing it like any other OSCAR node. How sould I go about the integration of a node that is not maintained by OSCAR with other oscar nodes??any help would be appriciated.
Sincerely, Sarat.
