Arun Singh shows us how to create shared storage on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 using OCFS2 (Oracle Cluster File System v2 for shared storage) and Xen Virtualization technology. Enterprise grade shared storage can cost you lots of money but here no real expensive shared storage used.
The information provided here works with real shared storage as well: This paper is to help you to understand the steps involved in creating shared storage without using expensive shared storage. Using this information you can create shared storage used by all xen guest OS and Host, avoiding copying of files between guest OS's. Hope you will find this paper useful. You can easily port instructions to Redhat or any other Linux distro without a problem. You can also use Redhat's Global File System (GFS) too. Creating shared storage on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 using Xen and OCFS2 [novell.com] What is the PVFS2 fileystem? The PICSciE Symposium on Data Science on May 16, 2014 aims to engage Princeton's research community in sharing their experiences and research results which are computational- and data-intensive in nature.
There will be presentations, poster sessions and open discussion forums during the symposium. Keynote Speaker: David W. Hogg, Center for Cosmology and Particle Physics, New York University Three miles from the main campus, Princeton’s high-performance computers hum undisturbed, cranking out projections of what happens when a neutron star encounters a black hole — things don’t go well for the neutron star — working out how trees know when it is safe to put out their spring leaves, and designing drug candidates for treating inflammatory diseases.

Performance Analysis of Virtualised Head Nodes Utilising Cost-E ff ... GlusterFS. GlusterFS is a scale-out network-attached storage file system. It has found applications including cloud computing, streaming media services, and content delivery networks. GlusterFS was developed originally by Gluster, Inc., then by Red Hat, Inc., after their purchase of Gluster in 2011. In June 2012, Red Hat Storage Server was announced as a commercially-supported integration of GlusterFS with Red Hat Enterprise Linux.[3] Design[edit] GlusterFS aggregates various storage servers over Ethernet or Infiniband RDMA interconnect into one large parallel network file system.
It is free software, with some parts licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL) v3 while others are dual licensed under either GPL v2 or the Lesser General Public License (LGPL) v3. GlusterFS is based on a stackable user space design. GlusterFS has a client and server component. Most of the functionality of GlusterFS is implemented as translators, including: See also[edit] References[edit] External links[edit]
Lustre (file system) Lustre is a type of parallel distributed file system, generally used for large-scale cluster computing. The name Lustre is a portmanteau word derived from Linux and cluster.[3] Lustre file system software is available under the GNU General Public License (version 2 only) and provides high performance file systems for computer clusters ranging in size from small workgroup clusters to large-scale, multi-site clusters. In December 2010, Oracle announced they would cease Lustre 2.x development and place Lustre 1.8 into maintenance-only support creating uncertainty around the future development of the file system.[12] Following this announcement, several new organizations sprang up to provide support and development in an open community development model, including Whamcloud,[13] Open Scalable File Systems, Inc.
(OpenSFS), EUROPEAN Open File Systems (EOFS) and others. By the end of 2010, most Lustre developers had left Oracle. A Lustre file system has three major functional units: Coda Papers. Here is a list of Coda documents, grouped according to content. Of course, this grouping has to be rough; there are many cases where a paper could equally well be classified in another category. For many documents, we have provided links to the full texts. Since this is not possible in many cases because of copyright restrictions, we've also provided you with abstracts.

Usage Measurements Kernel Performance. Lustre File System - Overview. Oracle acquired Sun Microsystems in 2010, and since that time Oracle's hardware and software engineers have worked side-by-side to build fully integrated systems and optimized solutions designed to achieve performance levels that are unmatched in the industry.
Early examples include the Oracle Exadata Database Machine X2-8, and the first Oracle Exalogic Elastic Cloud, both introduced in late 2010. During 2011, Oracle introduced the SPARC SuperCluster T4-4, a general-purpose, engineered system with Oracle Solaris that delivered record-breaking performance on a series of enterprise benchmarks. Oracle's SPARC-based systems are some of the most scalable, reliable, and secure products available today. Sun's prized software portfolio has continued to develop as well, with new releases of Oracle Solaris, MySQL, and the recent introduction of Java 7. Oracle invests in innovation by designing hardware and software systems that are engineered to work together.
