Re: [Users] what is "distributed image repository"

thanks,i know a little more. but i do not understand fully. distrubute filesystem is more understandable. specially,,for SAN(iscsi,fc) it is hard to share luns between nodes(not reliable), even use LVM,CLVM. would you explain it ( SAN case)?and it is hard to connect 'local directory' with distrbuted repo.

thanks.
