I was wondering about GFS - I don't have any experience with it and was hoping 
someone could jump in with some feedback.

It seems that OCFS (our version anyway) is not extendable unless you take it 
offline.  A key point for me would be a clustered filesystem that is 
dynamically growable as needed.

Anyone have any thoughts on the matter?
