MFS Description

Unlimited and fault tolerant space for your files MFS (Moose File System) is a proven foundation of highly reliable storage systems. The file system designed for petabyte class clusters crunching mission critical data 24/7.MFS is a networking, distributed file system. It spreads data over several physical localizations (servers), which are visible to a user as one resource. MFS acts as other Unix-alike file systems for standard file operations.MFS has hierarchical structure (directory tree), stores file attributes(permissions, last access and modification times) and makes it possible to create special files (block and character devices, pipes and sockets), symbolic links (file names pointing to other files accessible locally, not necessarily on MFS) and hard links (different names of files which refer to the same data on MFS). Here are some key features of "MFS": · higher reliability (data can be stored in several copies on separate computers) · dynamically expanding disk space by attaching new computers/disks · the possibility of storing deleted files for a defined period of time ("trash can" service on a file system level) · the possibility of creating a snapshot of a file, which means a coherent copy of the whole file, even while the file is being written. What's New in This Release: · Fixed CRC cache in chunkserver
