- pmjordan 15y agoNFS doesn't mirror the remote data to the local disk, whereas glusterfs allows exactly that (plus some more stuff). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GlusterFS http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GlusterFS
- lloeki 15y agoSo, is it usable even when offline? How does it handles conflicts once it comes back online? The only mention I seem to find about mirroring is mirroring across multiple servers, but not client<->server (unless you run a server locally on the client too).
- carmen 15y agoNFS and Git are exactly why i don't need dropbox. agglomerating large chunks of free space on all devices into universally-accessible paths without wasting any bytes on duplication or synch daemons, and a proper VCS for stuff that i want surgical branching/merging/history and redundancy
