1.3.1 Uninterrupted operation in case of node failure

If one nodeTerm fails when the GFS Shared File System is being used from multiple nodes, file access from the other nodes can be continued. The file system data retained by the failing node is automatically recovered in consistency within the GFS Shared File System from the other nodes. In other words, the processing of the application programs operating on the other nodes can be continued without causing a file system operation error.

For more information on the uninterrupted operation function, see "Failure Recovery".
