NFS alternative
 

Though this is going tobe a newbie post, but with the help of google, i did installed NFS in two of my linux server

But looking for a stable alternative (hardware/software)

Servers with 1gbps network card (2)
ext4
OS centos (any other flavour?)

Usability

Server A, Server B will keep writing into a common folder,

Server A wrote file1.txt in common folder, Server B will refer it and create new file file2.txt, Server A will refer that file2.txt and after sometime delete file1.txt

My question is, when i asked HP eva engineer for sharing rw folder between two machines and mount, he said its not possible in HP

so i opted NFS, attimes, NFS accessibility becomes very slow.

so in search of stable possibilties

Can anyone help me?

Hi,

Yes, there are others choices available.
That is the beauty of FOSS.

NFS, you used it but you complain about slowness. It can be many things, and not necessarily NFS. Which version of NFS are you using? Version 4 is more robust and secure than the previous ones.
FTP
Samba/CIFS
SSH, with the fuse and fuse-sshfs packages

Google a little and post problems if any.

yeah, i am using nfs v4

is this possible in HP eva? could be i need to post it in HP forum? but i am in favour Open Source, and would love to hang around
