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

Hi Christopher, Have you evaluatad ACFS or GFS (redhat cluster filesystem)?

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? Chris Taylor Oracle DBA Parallon IT&S -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
