Yeah, if you want to share data on iSCSI between multiple clients, you need a SAN file system. GFS2 is one of them. OCFS2 is another option. I'm not sure what you want exactly, but if you want to share data between multiple clients, CIFC (samba) or NFS might be better for you. > Do you first define the iscsi LUN/target and then build GFS on top of it?

It's fine if you just want to play with that. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stgt" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
