I am just trying to consider my options for storing a large mass of data (tens of terrabytes of files) and one idea is to build a clustered FS of some kind. Has anybody had any experience with that? Any recommendations?
You need a shared SAN back end to run traditional cluster file systems.
If you environment is all Linux, then Lustre (lustre.org) works well.
If you need other OS support, the commercial alternatives like Quantum StorNext and IBRIX (now acquired by HP) are good alternatives.
