Abstract :
This paper describes a reliable distributed storage server used to back segments located in a distributed virtual shared memory (DVSM). It focuses on the design of a generic logging support and gives hints about its implementation. The prototype developed within the AIX system is evaluated and exhibits good results. Using these results, some evolutions are proposed to improve performance
