This package is part of the Red Hat Cluster Suite, a complete high-availability solution. . The Global File System allows a cluster of machines to concurrently access shared storage hardware like SANs or iSCSI and network block devices. GFS can be deployed to build high-availability services without the single point of failure of a file server. . This package contains tools for creating and managing global file systems. GFS itself is a set of kernel modules. . The GFS2 kernel modules themselves are highly experimental and *MUST NOT* be used in a production environment yet.
