Regards, Gareth. --- From: Ken Preslan [email blocked] <PRE> To: Linux Kernel Mailing List [email blocked] Subject: GFS cluster filesystem re-released Date: 2004-06-24 22:53:49 Hi, I'd like to announce that Red Hat has re-released the GFS cluster filesystem and its related infrastructure under the GPL. The different projects that make up the infrastructure are: GFS - shared-disk cluster file system CLVM - clustering extensions to the LVM2 logical volume manager toolset CMAN - general-purpose symmetric cluster manager DLM - general-purpose distributed lock manager CCS - cluster configuration system to manage the cluster config file GULM - alternative redundant server-based lock/cluster manager for GFS GNBD - network block device driver shares storage over a network Fence - I/O fencing system The source code and patches for 2.6 are available at <A HREF="http://sources.redhat.com/cluster/">http://sources.redhat.com/cluster/</A>. 2.4 source should show up early tomorrow. We're looking for people help us work on this project so we can eventually get it included into the Linux kernel. Comments, suggestions, patches, and testers are more than welcome. --- </PRE> On Fri, 2004-07-09 at 12:36 -0400, Daniel Phillips wrote: <BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE> <PRE> On Friday 09 July 2004 10:53, Gareth Bult wrote: > I do appreciate all that, however there are some press releases out > there that are not so clear ..

It's very clear that the 2.6 release is out there so that hackers can get to work on it, add to it, and go find bugs. SRPMs for the stable 6.0 release are linked from the cluster page. They build against RHEL3 kernels. > .. Incidentally, I was being kind - I've had many kernel crashes, > even after getting it going .. On 2.6? No surprise. Please post any oopses to the list.
