I don't think there's a reason to share the MySQL database among the Rivendell workstations - only the database server needs direct access to it. The Rivendell workstations will use an IP connection to the server for their database accesses..
Although NFS can provide file locks, a database server needs much finer serialization controls. That's one reason why I/O accesses are done in the server. And then there's that whole accidental deletion or mangling possibility, which I suspect is what's making Fred twitch. <smile> On Mon, Jan 27, 2020 at 5:38 PM Rich Stivers <r...@stivers-bros.com> wrote: > On 1/27/2020 8:09 AM, Fred Gleason wrote: > > On Jan 26, 2020, at 08:14, Cowboy <c...@cwf1.com> wrote: > > As near as I can tell, this is a RedHat/centos/systemd bug. > > > Yup.
