Hi,
Is it possible to use GFS to make a synchronized filesystem between 2
machines with a "slow" line in between?
I mean:
- One machine with storage is in US
- One machine without storage is in UK
- There is a 2Mbit line between them.
We would like to have access to the files from both side, reading being
*fast*. At the moment, we use rsync during the night. This is OK but:
- Not up-to-date if modifs in US are done during the day
- If someone wants to modify, he must edit the files in the *US* not
in the UK, even if he is in the UK.
The idea would be to have gnbd in the US, GFS accross these 2 machines
and GFS in the UK making *read* caching and taking care of locking if
someone in the UK modify files in the US. Is that possible with GFS?
Thanks for any ideas.
