Anyone care to comment on the roadmap for this? As far as I understand, it's not possible to legally add ZFS to Linux and then distribute it. So, places are ok to do it themselves for their own purposes, but it's not something that a support company could provide to their end users then support. So, GlusterFS with ZFS on Linux isn't as widespread as it otherwise might be. People have been looking into GlusterFS on BtrFS as the new-upcoming ZFS kinda-equivalent, but there's nothing even close to official yet. :/ Does that help? :) + Justin -- GlusterFS - http://www.gluster.org An open source, distributed file system scaling to several petabytes, and handling thousands of clients.

[Gluster-users] Recomended underlying filesystem
Looking at setting up a two node replicated gluster filesystem. Base hard disks on each node are 2*2TB in RAID1. It will be used for serving VM Images. Does the underlying filesystem particularly matter? EXT4?
