Clustered NAS Heads and mountd issues

Clustered NAS Heads and mountd issues

[Juan Gomez]

I think there has been some previous chatter on this via this list so let
me try to bring it back and see if we could agree on what to include in the
distribution:

I wish NFS mountd daemons could issue a notification every time they update
the local rmtab (i.e. receive mount/umount etc) so that mountd dameons in
 different hosts could share a single rmtab and remain in sync.

Anyone has an idea of an interface that will be general enough to be used
by any type of NAS clustering software?

Could we register RPC callbacks with mountd so it would call remote
daemons? or is there a better suggestion? is there any patch already in the
queue to
 do something along these lines?


Juan
