Multiple Servers, One Share, How To Make The One Share Appear Local?

by gearzofgeek . Updated 17 years ago

So, I have a set of files and directories that I need to share across multiple Windows 2003 R2 servers for a Java app that I use. However, its doesn’t support UNC paths, so I am having to do complicated synchronization across servers.

What I would like to do is have some type if file share ( Windows File Share, DFS, iSCSI, SAN, NAS, etc. ) that looks like a local drive to each server, but is actually remote and lets them share the same files.

That way, when I update the application or its associated files, I can just do it in one spot and all the servers have access to it immediately.

Any ideas on what a low-cost solution to this would be?
