<div>GPFS can be configured to store two copies of all the data
(which helps read performance too, since it gives an extra path to the

<div>Lustre stores everything as RAID5, so I understand, and the
metadata servers are in pairs, so there's plenty of redundancy there.
Don't know about PVFS2, but the consensus in our group is that it has
less redundancy.</div>
