In regards to the additional products, we have a skin installed and we have a product that we had custom developed for us that connects to a PostgreSQL database. We've looked at slow PostgreSQL queries causing problems and have not been able to find an issue. We've also tested for the case where the PostgreSQL server is down and have not been able to create an issue. We therefor...

LinuxWorld San Francisco 2005: Oracle Cluster File System Will Be Distributed with the Linux Kernel
OCFS 2 Will Be Distributed with Version 2.6.14 of the Public Kernel, Says Andrew Morton, Linux 2.6 Kernel Maintainer

"I expect that Release 2 of the Oracle Cluster File System will be distributed with version 2.6.14 of the public kernel," said 2.6 Linux kernel maintainer Andrew Morton yesterday as Oracle announced at LinuxWorld Conference & Expo in San Francisco the general availability of OCFS 2 as a free alternative to proprietary systems.

It will also be included as a standard component in Novell's SUSE Linux Enterprise Server distributions, Oracle said.

"Oracle Cluster File System Release 2 delivers significant cluster file management improvements that help our customers reduce IT costs without compromising quality or performance," said David Patrick (pictured), vice president and general manager, Linux, Open Source Platforms and Services at Novell.

"Linux adoption in the enterprise continues to increase, thanks to the commitment and technology advancements made by companies like Oracle," he added.

To date, Patrick noted, tens of thousands of copies of OCFS have been downloaded from the Oracle Technology Network ( OTN ).

By distributing OCFS Release 2 through the Linux community and major Linux distributors such as Novell, Oracle affirms its commitment to sharing technology advances that benefit Linux users, the company said in an announcement.

OCFS 2 will be the first clustering component to be added to the public kernel. "We hope that it will provide a foundation for further improvements to enterprise Linux deployments," said Morton.

"Oracle is very focused on providing the best tools and support for our customers. Since we open sourced our cluster file system code three years ago, we have been diligently working with the Linux community to develop solutions that simplify cluster file management," said Wim Coekaerts, director of Linux engineering, Oracle. "This release encompasses all the hard work driven by Oracle's commitment to its growing base of Oracle-on-Linux customers."

OCFS Release 2 will be included in the Linux 2.6 kernel, and will be available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise 9. OCFS 2 will also be included with Novell's SUSE Linux Enterprise 9 Service Pack 2.

What about all of the other clustered file systems for Linux...like Veritas and Sistina (been around a while, first open source, now for sale)? Not to mention all of the other open source cfs products for Linux...

OCFS 2 allows a Shared Oracle Home install and will support the installation of Oracle binaries and log/trace files. Will it support a generic cluster filesystem?
