[Linux-cluster] HA with GFS and GNBD

[Brian Jackson]

It's certainly something that's been mentioned often. So you aren't
alone. I don't know of a good solution that involves GFS currently.
You could look at some of the other fs'es out there like AFS, Lustre,
etc., or you could just use something along the lines of an nfs
exported drbd.
