Equivalent of GFS on Linux for HPUX 11i on PA_RISC

[Matthew Ghofrani]

Does HPUX have Global Filesystem Sharing for its native UNIX 11i that I could run on rp8400 servers?

CFS is the only available file system available for sharing in hpux other than raw.

That would be CIFS, I believe - and you can also use NFS.

Linux GFS is a cluster filesystem, not a network filesystem, so CIFS and NFS aren't equivalents. Veritas CFS is the only cluster filesystem I know of for HP-UX.

Yes. Serviceguard Storage Management Suite Cluster Filesystem:

Shalom,

It would seem that http://www.hp.com/go/sgsms does provide roughly the same functionality as GFS.

Because GFS and sgsms are not ports of one and other, there is going to be a significant difference in features.

Hopefully sgsms was tested better than GFS was.
