''network exporting'' is precisely what I would like to do,
since I have very
little more space on my xen server for anything more than proof of concept
vms, and I have so much space now on my SuSE system. My experience with nfs 3
or 4 is you can only export previously mounted portions of the disk, which
means effectively you have nfs -> file backed store ->
/dev/mapper/imagefile,
and I was hoping to remove some of the overhead.
By the way, I found the following urls on the OpenSuSE wiki, but nothing on
gnbd or ataoe. I suppose I can google for the their home pages, but I''m
not
looking to pioneer technology on SuSE that hasn''t been trod elsewhere
