Description: GFS2 file system support

More info: A cluster filesystem. Allows a cluster of computers to simultaneously use a block device that is shared between them (with FC, iSCSI, NBD, etc...). GFS reads and writes to the block device like a local filesystem, but also uses a lock module to allow the computers coordinate their I/O so filesystem consistency is maintained. One of the nifty features of GFS is perfect consistency -- changes made to the filesystem on one machine show up immediately on all other machines in the cluster. To use the GFS2 filesystem in a cluster, you will need to enable the locking module below. Documentation and utilities for GFS2 can be found here: http://sources.redhat.com/cluster The "nolock" lock module is now built in to GFS2 by default. If you want to use the DLM, be sure to enable IPv4/6 networking.
