[Pvfs-users] Regarding Striping

[renuka prasad]

Hi, All

     Hi All,

     I'm new to parallel file systems. i would like to know:
     1. Does normal posix calls to pvfs do stipe data across multiple nodes for parallel
         access?
        Ex: If a create a file using posix call on a pvfs ( having 3 i/o servers),
              does the file is striped across 3 nodes?. How to make sure this?
 
     2. If gridftp (striped) can be configured to perform MPI-IO on PVFS?

Thanks & Regards,
Prasad
