Hi, Someone once posted info about a 500MB Data.fs running over FiberOptic NT NTFS Cluster Network Name,and another Data.fs of 500MB running over a scsi Linux NFS mount with no major problems for about 2 years. You can also Pack your Data.fs on a daily basis and backup the Data.fs.old to another storage device. http://www.it.uc3m.es/~ptb/nbd/ this his in fact very promising. But the best of the world would be to have Zope Storage Server Replication, which what I know is in the forge. Best Resgards, Julio Dinis Silva

We are considering storing some mission-critical data inside a ZODB, but are worried about data loss if the ZEO server should be destroyed.

Has anyone looked at solving this problem?

Replicated-ZEO looks like it will eventually be ideal solution; the use case is documented at <http://www.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/ZEOReplicatedStorage/SurviveTotalLossOfStorage>

Until then, http://www.it.uc3m.es/~ptb/nbd/ looks promising. Has anyone tried FileStorage over a network block device?
