Abstract

Techniques are provided for processing file system requests using a super cluster of clusters of nodes. Mirror file systems for processing the requests are exported through multiple clusters in the super cluster. A cluster may be assigned to an active or passive role for processing file system requests for a set of mirror file systems. A super cluster bundle, or mapping between a cluster in the super cluster and a file system resource on the set of mirror file systems, is created to process the file system requests. The super cluster bundle represents an amount of work assigned to the cluster. A super cluster bundle is reassigned from one cluster to another in response to a failover, or in response to a load balancing determination.
