That makes it distinctly feature-incomplete, so not really a viable
alternative. :(
I am aware of a few alternatives, but they are all distinctly not suitable
for
my use case (WAN r/w cluster).
1) DRBD + [GFS | OCFS] - unusable for high latency (WAN) environment.
2) PeerFS - Requires a full resync if a volume is extended (imagine
resyncing a few TB over a WAN connection!)
3) SeznamFS - no master-master replication, all nodes but one have to be
read only.
4) Tahoe allmydata - last I checked it's fuse front ends (plural - not a
good sign)
are experimental and incomplete.
GlusterFS seems to be as good as it gets for what I'm trying to do.
