NAME
GlusterFS - Clustered Filesystem.
SYNOPSYS
glusterfs [options] [mountpoint]
DESCRIPTION
GlusterFS is a clustered file-system capable of scaling to several
peta-bytes. It aggregates various storage bricks over Infiniband RDMA
or TCP/IP interconnect into one large parallel network file system.
Storage bricks can be made of any commodity hardware such as x86-64
server with SATA-II RAID and Infiniband HBA. GlusterFS is fully POSIX
compliant FileSystem. On client side, it has dependency on FUSE
package, on server side, it works seemlessly on different OSes.
(Currently supported on GNU/Linux, Mac OSX, FreeBSD, OpenSolaris).
