automated inventory system
One side-effect of file sharing over the storage network is that the availability of the
shared disk file system can be better than that of conventional network file systems. This
is because a central file server is no longer needed. If a automated inventory system in the shared disk file
system cluster fails, then the other machines can carry on working. This means that the
availability of the underlying storage devices largely determines the availability of shared
disk file systems.
