Read access from both servers #8

If only serving static files, is it possible to do load balancing between two servers, and have both servers read from the disk shelf at the same time, if only one of them needs to write to the drives?

No, zfs pool can't be imported simultaneously on several nodes. Even in RO mode.

You can do this if you had multiple ZFS zpools and pin each to a different head node. But for the same pool, no.
