12	  A cluster filesystem.
13
14	  Allows a cluster of computers to simultaneously use a block device
15	  that is shared between them (with FC, iSCSI, NBD, etc...).  GFS reads
16	  and writes to the block device like a local filesystem, but also uses
17	  a lock module to allow the computers coordinate their I/O so
18	  filesystem consistency is maintained.  One of the nifty features of
19	  GFS is perfect consistency -- changes made to the filesystem on one
20	  machine show up immediately on all other machines in the cluster.
21
22	  To use the GFS2 filesystem in a cluster, you will need to enable
23	  the locking module below. Documentation and utilities for GFS2 can
24	  be found here: http://sources.redhat.com/cluster
25
26	  The "nolock" lock module is now built in to GFS2 by default. If
27	  you want to use the DLM, be sure to enable HOTPLUG and IPv4/6
28	  networking.

34	  Multiple node locking module for GFS2
35
36	  Most users of GFS2 will require this. It provides the locking
37	  interface between GFS2 and the DLM, which is required to use GFS2
38	  in a cluster environment.
