[Samba] Samba/GPFS/GlusterFS

[François Legal]

Hello, 

sorry for this little OT post. 

In my company, we have 2
distant facilities, with people at each facility working on the same
files. 

The 2 facilities are connected through MPLS with about
10MBytes/s BW. 

Saving the work files to servers located at one or the
other facility has became a pain for the people accessing the files from
the remote site. 

Trying to improve files availability, I was wondering
if a setup based on GPFS/GlusterFS plus samba for serving the file would
be a good reply to this problem. 

Does anybody have experience with
this ? 

Thanks. 

François
