[Pvfs2-developers] Separate data and metadata storage paths -

[David Bonnie]

Everyone -

Nick and I are working at LANL this summer and one of our projects involves
modifying PVFS2 to use separate storage paths for metadata versus file data
on a single PVFS2 server.  The goal is to be able to place the metadata
database files on faster drives (SSDs, RAM drives, etc) to speed up metadata
operations while still being able to service data requests from a standard
HDD.  Does anyone forsee a problem with this being pushed into the main
distribution once it is finished?

Thanks,

- Dave
