|

| 6 | Before you can start using CTDB you must first install and configure a
|
|---|
| 7 | bunch of linux boxes.<br><br>
|
|---|
| 8 |
|
|---|
| 9 | After that you need to install and configure a cluster filesystem and
|
|---|
| 10 | mount that cluster filesystem on all the linux boxes that will form
|
|---|
| 11 | your cluster.<br><br>
|
|---|
| 12 |
|
|---|
| 13 | Also, ensure that the cluster filesystem supports correct
|
|---|
| 14 | posix locking semantics. A simple way to test this is to run <a
|
|---|
| 15 | href="https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Ping_pong">ping_pong</a> utility
|
|---|
| 16 | bundled with CTDB.<br><br>

| 18 | <h1>Cluster filesystems</h1>
|
|---|
| 19 | We have primarily used the GPFS filesystem for our testing but any
|
|---|
| 20 | cluster filesystem should work as long as it provides correct file
|
|---|
| 21 | locking.<br><br>
|
|---|
| 22 |
|
|---|
| 23 | While we primarily test with GPFS, CTDB should work with almost any
|
|---|
| 24 | other cluster filesystem as well.<br><br>
|
|---|
| 25 |
|
|---|
| 26 | Please let us know your experiences in using other cluster filesystems.
