by Arun Ramakrishnan on Wed 10th Sep 2003 04:22 UTC

CXFS has been around for more than three years now.So it is not all that new. Support for linux and AIX is the new part.

as long as the filesystem is ported to the OS...
are the sources open to this one ? a link to them would fit the news I think.

operating systems.

64-bit scalability that supports file sizes up to 9 million terabytes, filesystems to 18 million terabytes
