Hi !
I have an application that is designed to run on three servers, on
Server A some files are created, they are processed on server B and
should arrive at Server C for further processing.
It is about 400GB of files with an average size of 50KB each. Server A
and B are Solaris 8, Server C is Solaris 2.6.
So far they are all working on NFS exported FS. However, to improve
performance, I would like to allow simultaneous read-write access to
those filesystems from multiple servers using a product like Sun QFS
(one of the servers became a master of the FS, the other servers that
want to write, will request permission from the master server by
circulating metadata over the network and the blocks of data itself
directly to the storage (which will be multiinitiated). I would highly
prefer to use instead products from Veritas Suite, since the servers
already have Veritas Storage Foundation Standard Edition 3.5, it will
probably only necessary to buy some license extension.
Did anybody tried this with Veritas products ? Which licenses exactly do
I need to achieve that ?
Is the solution stable and performance visible better than NFS ?
Met vriendelijke groeten / Kind regards,
