[lug] Cluster File Systems

[Lee Woodworth]

Can anyone recommend an open-source cluster file system
that can handle doing lots of reads/writes to a remote
file, especially >10GB files? Would like to have a
mix of host architectures and not have to setup a full
cluster + management.

A few years ago I used glusterfs with the native fs driver
in the kernel. I would get hard kernel-level lockups
in the above scenario (client reboot was the only way
to recover).

Even nfsv4 servers locked up, though I haven't tried doing
that in awhile.
