Chiron FS 1.1.1 (Development branch)

Chiron FS is a FUSE based filesystem thatimplements replication at the filesystem levellike RAID 1 does at the device level. Thereplicated filesystem may be of any kind you want;the only requisite is that you mount it. There isno need for special configuration files; the setupis as simple as one mount command (or one line infstab).License: GNU General Public License v3Changes:
This release has an option that allows it to mount a pseudo-filesystem (like /proc) to control the behavior of the Chiron filesystem being mounted, allowing it to show and change the status of the replicas. Dynamically generated Nagios plugin scripts are also provided. The howto and man page were updated. A a bug that made ChironFS fail to determine the correct path to the program that manages its control filesystem has been fixed.Image
