We used it about a year ago for our infrastructure (backup and |
| 12 |
live sync of HA systems), obviously both servers and clients were |
| 13 |
used, both on Gentoo. We stopped this because of numerous kernel |
| 14 |
panics, not to mention that it was quite slow even after tuning. So |
| 15 |
we switch to another solution for data sync and backups: clsync. (It |
| 16 |
was developed from scratch for our needs, this is not a filesystem, |
| 17 |
but may be considered as more powerful alternative to lsyncd.) |

Though this was a year ago or so. Your mileage may vary and |
| 20 |
it is likely that during this year stability was improved. |

Ceph is very promising by both design and capabilities. |
