| |  | *You spoke, we listened\!* |
| | | *The GPFS Wiki gets a passing grade \!* |
| | |
 | | {color:black}We have received feedback from many of you who are tasked with implementing GPFS solutions. We have had repeated requests to provide a place where you can get more information on topics including: getting started with GPFS, best practices and performance tuning. Well, you spoke and we listened. This wiki is provided as a forum where members of the GPFS world community can share information. You are all invited to participate, comment and use the information on this wiki. No account is required to read the information and all you need is a free IBM developerWorks ID to add or update content.{color} |
| | | {color:black}We have received lot's of positive feedback on the GPFS wiki, keep it coming\! This wiki is here to provide you the information you need to install configure and administer solutions built on GPFS that goes beyond the GPFS documentation. If you have a suggestion for a topic, add an entry, even if it is only a heading.{color} |
