GFS and Cluster on FC5/FC6

sameeh · #1 1st November 2006, 10:48 AM

I've been in the field for a while, but never came across making clusters....

Here is what I need to do,

Use Multiple Systems with smaller HDD to form a Virtual 3TB Storage Cluster that can be accessed over Network via Samba...
I'm a little confused here about whether what I need to do, please outline me briefly or point me to a good tutorial that will explain the above need...

I really need help about it...Thank you all in advance...

so you want to take the free space on multiple machines and form a larger storage cluster and share it via samba? or you want to take a bunch of machines with shared direct attached storage and have them act as a samba cluster?

I do not believe that the former would be a GFS cluster, while the latter would be a GFS cluster.
