[mythtv-users] Is there a distributed filesystem available?

[Indulis Bernsteins]

the definition of a filesystem is that it has one logical set of 
information in it, so no there is no such file system that just loses some 
of its data.  I dont understand why you wouldn't want to run 
mirroring/RAID1.  Disks are pretty cheap now.

The only alternative is to have a change to the mythtv code where it puts 
one file on one filesystem and the next recording in a file on another. 
Personally, I don't really see a lot of advantage to this.  IMHO if you're 
serious about availability, use RAID (software or hardware), if not then 
just accept that when a disk dies you'll lose all the data in any LVM 
volume group that has part of its data on that disk.

You know that LVM (2?) can do an online migrate from one (possible 
failing) disk to another, right?
