The XFS guaranteed-rate I/O system provides an API that allows applications to reserve bandwidth to the filesystem. XFS dynamically calculates the performance available from the underlying storage devices, and will reserve bandwidth sufficient to meet the requested performance for a specified time. This is a feature unique to the XFS file system.
GNU GRUB (short for GNU GRand Unified Bootloader, commonly referred to as GRUB) is a boot loader package from the GNU Project.GRUB is the reference implementation of the Free Software Foundation's Multiboot Specification, which provides a user the choice to boot one of multiple operating systems installed on a computer or select a specific kernel configuration available on a particular ...
As of October 2006, the manpage for xfs on Debian states that: FUTURE DIRECTIONS Significant further development of xfs is unlikely. One of the original motivations behind xfs was the single-threaded nature of the X server — a user’s X session could seem to "freeze up" while the X server took a moment to rasterize a font.
All the gnome-mount programs utilize HAL methods and as such run unprivileged. The rationale for gnome-mount is to have a centralized place (in GConf) where settings such as mount options and mount locations are maintained. [4] As with all unix-like commands, the options are specific to the version of mount and are precisely detailed in its man ...
The client itself is a lightweight kernel module that does not require any kernel patches. The servers run on top of an existing local file system. There are no restrictions to the type of underlying file system as long as it supports POSIX; recommendations are to use ext4 for the metadata servers and XFS for the storage servers. Both servers ...
Provided synchronization has occurred, a different disk can be inserted into the drive. The system automatically notices that the disk has changed and updates the mount point contents to reflect the new medium. An automounter will automatically mount a file system when a reference is made to the directory atop which it should be mounted. This ...
Rclone can mount a variety of remote / cloud storage with FUSE. s3fs: Gives the ability to mount an S3 bucket as if it were a local file system. Sector File System: Sector is a distributed file system designed for large amount of commodity computers. Sector uses FUSE to provide a mountable local file system interface.
J/XFS is an alternative API to CEN/XFS (which is Windows specific) and also to Xpeak (which is Operating System independent, based on XML messages). J/XFS is written in Java with the objective to provide a platform agnostic client-server architecture for financial applications, especially peripheral devices used in the financial industry such ...
