Network File System (NFS) is a distributed file system protocol originally developed by Sun Microsystems (Sun) in 1984, [1] allowing a user on a client computer to access files over a computer network much like local storage is accessed.
DRBL (Diskless Remote Boot in Linux) is a NFS-/NIS server providing a diskless or systemless environment for client machines. It could be used for cloning machines with Clonezilla software inbuilt, providing for a network installation of Linux distributions like Fedora, Debian, etc.,
Some researchers have made a functional and experimental analysis of several distributed file systems including HDFS, Ceph, Gluster, Lustre and old (1.6.x) version of MooseFS, although this document is from 2013 and a lot of information are outdated (e.g. MooseFS had no HA for Metadata Server at that time).
Linux operating systems now commonly use a new version of CacheFS developed by David Howells. Howells appears to have rewritten CacheFS from scratch, not using Sun's original code. The Linux CacheFS currently is designed to operate on Andrew File System and Network File System (NFS) filesystems.
On Linux, network block device (NBD) is a network protocol that can be used to forward a block device (typically a hard disk or partition) from one machine to a second machine. As an example, a local machine can access a hard disk drive that is attached to another computer. The protocol was originally developed for Linux 2.1.55 and released in ...
Yes Native since Linux Kernel 5.15 NTFS3. Older kernels may use backported NTFS3 driver or ntfs-3g [72] Read only, write support needs Paragon NTFS or ntfs-3g:
However, the ZFS-Linux port of Lustre will be running ZFS's DMU (Data Management Unit) in userspace. [12] MinFS: MinFS is a fuse driver for Amazon S3 compatible object storage server. MinFS [13] lets you mount a remote bucket (from a S3 compatible object store), as if it were a local directory.
GFS2 forms part of the Fedora, Red Hat Enterprise Linux and associated CentOS Linux distributions. Users can purchase commercial support to run GFS2 fully supported on top of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. As of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.3, GFS2 is supported in cloud computing environments in which shared storage devices are available. [7]
