Hello, i have a question on locking issues on GFS: how do GFS lock files on the filesystem. I have found one posting to this list which states that locking occurs "more or less" on file level. Is this true? or does some kind of locking occur on directory level too? The question arrose because i was thinking on whats would happen when using GFS on an file server with home directories for lets say 1000 users. how do i setup this directory structure to avoid locking issues as best as possible. is a directory layout like the following ok when /home is a GFS file system: /home/a/b/c/abc /home/d/e/f/def /home/g/h/i/ghi ... /home/x/y/z/xyz thanks Chris -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
