<font style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt">We currently have a MD3000i with an iSCSI LUN shared out to our apache web server. We are going to add another apache web server into the mix using LVS to load balance, however, I am curious how well iSCSI handles file locking and data integrity. I have the iSCSI partition formatted as ext3. <br />
<br />
Is my setup totally flawed and will ext3 not allow for data integrity with multiple apache hosts reading/writing to the shared storage? Am I required to also setup GFS across my apache hosts or does iSCSI somehow manage this? <br />
<br />
Thanks for helping clear this up,<br />
James<br />
