Hi All,<br>
<br>
I“m going to mount an active-active file server and my first<br>
idea is to<br>
mount a NFS service with luci but now I have the doubt if is it<br>
possible. with luci i have allways mounted Active-Passive<br>
services. So,<br>
my question is that.<br>
<br>
Any other aproach to get an Active-Active file Server?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Not with NFS, since NFS has no feature to have multiple<br>
servers/share. But there is no reason you can't connect half of the<br>
clients to the other server.<br>
<br>
<br>
I haven't realized about it, it could be a solution.<br>
<br>
one thing, I have been investigating about it, and I have thought it<br>
could be possible using Linux Virtual Server (administered with<br>
piranha), what do you think about it?<br>

I think you need to start to list your requirements in a coherent manner first, in terms of performance, features, and redundancy. The solution you should be looking for will be more obvious then.<div class="im"><br></div>

If you need client-side multi-homing, GlusterFS can do that.<br>

in this project I only can use red hat certified solutions. I suposse<br>
GlusterFS isn't,<br>

Hmm, personally I find that sticking with only what ships with the distro to be too limiting as soon as you need to cover a use-case that isn't very basic and boring. But if you are looking for a "supported" solution, Gluster Inc. do have support contracts available.<br>

But without more information on your use-case and expected access patterns, it is impossible to suggest a solution in a particularly meaningful way.<br><font color="#888888">
