Line 56:
DCE/DFS is a DCE-based application which provides a distributed filesystem on DCE. DCE/DFS can support replicas of a fileset (the DCE/DFS equivalent of a filesystem) on multiple DFS servers - there is one read-write copy and zero or more read only copies. Replication is supported between the read-write and the read-only copies. In addition, DCE/DFS also supports what are called "backup" filesets, which if defined for a fileset are capable of storing a version of the fileset as it was prior to the last replication.
DCE/DFS is believed to be the world's only distributed filesystem that correctly implements the full POSIX filesystem semantics, including byte range locking.<ref name="advogato" />
DCE/DFS was sufficiently reliable and stable to be utilised by [[IBM]] to run the back-end filesystem for the 1996 [[Olympics]] web site, seamlessly and automatically distributed and edited worldwide in different time zones.<ref name="advogato" />
