The Parallel Virtual File System, Version 2
Parallel Architecture Research Laboratory, Clemson University
Mathematics and Computer Science Division, Argonne National Laboratory
PVFS2 is a next generation parallel file system for Linux clusters. It
harnesses commodity storage and network technology to provide concurrent
access to data that is distributed across a (possibly large) collection
of servers. PVFS2 serves as both a testbed for parallel I/O research
and as a freely available production-level tool for the cluster community.
See the top level COPYING file for license information.
NOTE: The pvfs2 kernel modules for 2.4.x and 2.6.x are released under
the terms of the GNU General Public License.
