Hello, I have a small beowulf cluster for parallel processing (with MPI / MPICH) consist of eight Dell workstation on a LAN. Each workstation has 40 GB hard drive, and only small part of it is used for the OS installation. I am trying to find an optimized way to use the excess space on the those harddrives (about 30 GB x 8 = 240 GB) that are scattered over 8 different workstation on a LAN. I've read a bit about LVM, never actually used it before, that it's good for many disks configuration. So I am wondering if there is such thing as LVM over network ? If not, what is my other option ? What I want basically, if I could just 'collect' those 210 GB excess space so that I could use it for eg. /home, or something, that would be great. Thanks for any thoughts or info. RDB -- Reuben D.
