Re: [zfs-discuss] "Poor Man's Cluster" using zpool export and zpool import
Hi Shawn, I have no experience with this configuration, but you might review the information in this blog: http://blogs.sun.com/erickustarz/entry/poor_man_s_cluster_end ZFS is not a cluster file system and yes, possible data corruption issues exist. Eric mentions this in his blog. You might also check out the HA-cluster product: http://opensolaris.org/os/community/ha-clusters/ Cindy Shawn Joy wrote: Is it supported to use zpool export and zpool import to manage disk access between two nodes that have access to the same storage device. What issues exist if the host currently owning the zpool goes down? In this case will using zpool import -f work? Is there possible data corruption issues?

See the description of the cachefile property in the zpool(1M) man page, that was put there for this type of export/import clustering. -- Darren J Moffat ___ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
