I just won't do it.  The technology at hand is definitely not in shape for
this if you want a system running smoothly in production (i.e. no experimental
system).

If you want a production system that scales and is high available/has failover 
capablilities, set up several boxes with _separate_ userspace and multiplex
all connections to and from it according to the userspace definition.

You can then provide high availability for each box with shared disk access
and an additional _offline_ cyrus (only jumping in mounting the shared disk 
in a failover situation).


Doing GFS and the like does not yet seem to give you a scaling and well-per-
forming environment without having to employ dozens of good hackers stroking
the child all the time I guess.


Just my .02c,

Birger
