Handling Heterogeneity in Shared-Disk File Systems

by Changxun Wu, Randal Burns - IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2003 ACM/IEEE CONFERENCE ON SUPERCOMPUTING (SC ’03 , 2003
"... We develop and evaluate a system for load management in shared-disk file systems built on clusters of heterogeneous computers. The system generalizes load balancing and server provisioning. It balances file metadata workload by moving file sets among cluster server nodes. It also responds to changi ..."

GPFS: A Shared-Disk File System for Large Computing Clusters

by Frank Schmuck, Roger Haskin - In Proceedings of the 2002 Conference on File and Storage Technologies (FAST , 2002
"... GPFS is IBM's parallel, shared-disk file system for cluster computers, available on the RS/6000 SP parallel supercomputer and on Linux clusters. GPFS is used on many of the largest supercomputers in the world. GPFS was built on many of the ideas that were developed in the academic community ove ..."

A 64-bit, shared disk file system for Linux

by Kenneth W. Preslan, Andrew P. Barry, Jonathan E. Brassow, Grant M. Erickson, Erling Nygaard, Christopher J. Sabol, Steven R. Soltis, David C. Teigl, Matthew T. O’keefe - In Proceedings of the Seventh NASA Goddard Conference on Mass Storage Systems. IEEE Computer , 1999
"... In computer systems today, speed and responsiveness is often determined by network and storage subsystem per-formance. Faster, more scalable networking interfaces like Fibre Channel and Gigabit Ethernet provide the scaf-folding from which higher performance implementations may be constructed, but ne ..."

, but new thinking is required about how machines interact with network-enabled storage de-vices. We have developed a Linux file system called GFS (the Global File System) that allows multiple Linux machines to access and share disk and tape devices on a Fibre Chan-nel or SCSI storage network. We plan

The Design and Performance of a Shared Disk File System for IRIX

by Steve Soltis, Grant Erickson, Ken Preslan, Tom Ruwart , 1998
"... : In this paper we present a new storage architecture for clusters that creates a shared memory of disk storage that is uniformly accessible to all cluster clients, scales to large capacity, and provides very high performance and connectivity. The cluster structure resembles a symmetric multiprocess ..."

found in traditional file systems while scaling to potentially large numbers of clients and large capacity disk systems. We provide a description of the basic file system design, our current implementation on SGI IRIX operating system, and detailed benchmarking and performance analysis results. Good

Fastpath Optimizations for Cluster Recovery in Shared-Disk Systems

by Randal Burns
"... We describe the design and implementation of a clustering service for a high-performance, shared-disk file system. The service provides failure detection and recovery, reliable endto-end messaging, and a centralized and recoverable management interface. We implement novel optimizations in the voting ..."

The Google File System

by Sanjay Ghemawat, Howard Gobioff, Shun-tak Leung - ACM SIGOPS OPERATING SYSTEMS REVIEW , 2003
"... We have designed and implemented the Google File System, a scalable distributed file system for large distributed data-intensive applications. It provides fault tolerance while running on inexpensive commodity hardware, and it delivers high aggregate performance to a large number of clients. While s ..."
Abstract - Cited by 1501 (3 self) - Add to MetaCart
sharing many of the same goals as previous distributed file systems, our design has been driven by observations of our application workloads and technological environment, both current and anticipated, that reflect a marked departure from some earlier file system assumptions. This has led us to reexamine
