Gfarm 2.5.8 發布,分布式文件系統
Gfarm是一個分布式的文件系統,一般用于大規模集群計算。它在用戶級實現,并且可以通過 FUSE安裝。 It's implemented in userland, and can be mounted by FUSE. It utilizes locality of a file to access a data node, and supports Globus GSI for Wide Area Network. Users can explicitly control file replica location on Gfarm. Gfarm can be used as an alternative storage system to HDFS for Hadoop, Samba, MPI-IO, and GridFTP. Monitoring via ZABBIX and Ganglia is also supported。
Release Notes: This release adds an automatic replica creation feature (replica_check), an IO statistics monitoring feature (config-gfmd-iostat, config-gfsd-iostat), a ganglia plugin, and improvements to tools to maintain replica location (gfncopy, gfprep, gfpcopy, etc). Stability under high load conditions is improved, as well. gfarm2fs 1.2.9, gfarm samba plugin 1.0.0, and gfarm zabbix plugin 1.1.0 are also released.
