It's pretty clear to everyone that we are having severe reliability issues
with to IBRIX.  This file system was chosen about a year ago and should
have stabilized by now.

We are starting investigations and installing test configurations with
Lustre and GFS.  This will be put on the new hardware that was to be
IBRIX based.

We will also be upgrading very soon to v1.3 of IBRIX which includes the
'thin-client' transfer protocol.  This would take all NFS problems out of
the picture completely.  Even with v1.3, I think we would have either
Luster or GFS on other hardware so we can evaluate them both.

Sorry for all the problems, and we're working to correct the problem.

Jon
