Hello all, new to the list here. Figured I'd hop in to get some insight/opinion
on the hardware requirements of Gluster in our environment.
We've been testing Gluster as our shared storage technology for our new Cloud
product we're going to be launching. The primary role of the Gluster

Heh sure although we took a circuitous route to get to where we are.
To start with I recommend using DRBL (diskless remote boot linux). It's
a well maintained project and will save you a lot of initial headaches
of creating initrds compiling etc.

It's nfs based bu
Here were the notes for us in Debian. Since these notes are mildly out
of context hopefully they simply give you a starting point. Rsync is
the tool we use to slurp the debian image. You manage gluster as you
would on a normal install. However, you manage the configs and such on
a copy at (X) l

That would be very interesting ; if you'd be willing to share your notes
on this procedure, i'm sure i wouldn't be the only one to thank you for
We have a similar setup booting from gluster where it loads the os into
a ramdrive, but there are concerns as you write logs etc since it can
start to eat up your ram.
there is an article from slashdot that had an interesting approach (look
under "setting up storage" halfway down):

Hi,
I'm only recently started playing with glusterfs. My set up consists of
two servers (noriko and kumiko), each with twelve 1Tb disk, raided
together in raid10.
The systems have CentOS-5.5 installed, and I have
installed glusterfs-3.0.4-1 (client, common and server).
I have generated t

Hello,
I am just looking around for a cheap, flexible and redundant
SAN-Solution and started reading about glusterfs.
my network is based on gigabit-ethernet and i have some 16 servers being
connected via infiniband.
After reading some documentation I have a few questions and hopefully
