Additionally, Red Hat said the partnership means that its Global File System (GFS) and Cluster Suite are supported with Network Appliance storage systems.

Red Hat currently uses Network Appliance systems for several of its internal applications, including the Red Hat Network and other applications based on Oracle.

Paul Cormier, executive vice president of engineering at Red Hat, said: "Red Hat and NetApp have collaborated to develop enterprise-level Linux grid environments using an iSCSI-based GFS product suite."
