Thanks for making it. OCFS2 seems like a pain to maintain with new rpm's for each new kernel update, and GFS a pain to setup at the least. We just want scalability for future hosting options; it seems like GFS is the most powerful option. But you're right that there is not a lot of writing going on and NFS is probably the best option. > -Ross > > > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS at centos.org > http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos >
