Techniques for implementing an adaptive data access error handling policy are disclosed. In one particular exemplary embodiment, the technique may be realized as a system comprising a shared storage device communicatively coupled to a network, and a computer cluster communicatively coupled to the network, the computer cluster comprising a plurality of nodes each mounting a shared file system thereon, a first node of the plurality of nodes to send a data access request to the shared storage device, to identify a data access error associated with the data access request, and to determine whether to permit access to the shared file system based on the data access error being a local data access error or a global data access error.
