Parallel NFS (pNFS) Flexible File Layout

Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Standard
Pages: 42
Abstract: Parallel NFS (pNFS) allows a separation between the metadata (onto a metadata server) and data (onto a storage device) for a file. The flexible file layout type is defined in this document as an extension to pNFS that allows the use of storage devices that require only a limited degree of interaction with the metadata server and use already-existing protocols. Client-side mirroring is also added to provide replication of files.
