Hi.
Just curious if GFS can be used in a HPC environment, like GPFS or Oracle OCFS2?
I don't think so. Comments from people in the HPC-business indicate that it doesn't scale to the number of nodes that typically forms these kinds of environments.
NFS still rulez there, together with more (ISILON/Panasas) or less (SUN) specialized NFS-serving-gear.
