Package: gfs-tools (2.20081102-1)

Red Hat cluster suite - global file system tools

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 provides userspace tools for creating and managing global file systems. GFS itself is a set of kernel modules.

Note: the package requires gfs2-tools installed; this is known to be reliable even though the GFS2 kernel modules themselves are highly experimental and *MUST NOT* be used in a production environment yet.
