Free implementation of the VMware cluster file system

,----[ Quote ]
| fluid Operations, a provider of management software for complex fully 
| virtualised environments, has developed an open source implementation of the 
| VMFS cluster filing system that uses VMware ESX to store virtual machines and 
| disks. This is a userspace driver written in Java that has been tested under 
| Windows and Linux, but according to the project's site it "should work on any 
| platform that supports Java". It only supports VMFS3, not versions 1 or 2, 
| and was developed by analysing the on-disk format of VMFS.
