Off and on for the past 8 months I've been working on setting up a rather
sizable Gluster configuration on top of ZFS. I wanted to report back my
experiences.
First, I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 with zfsonlinux.org packages. Gluster is
installed from the semiosis PPA.
My test config is as follows:
I'm trying to create a new Geo-Rep of about 3 TB of data currently stored
in a 2 brick mirror config. Obviously the geo-rep destination is a third
server.
This is my 150th attempt. Okay, maybe not that far, but it's pretty darn
bad.
Replication works fine until I hit around 1TB of data sync'd, t

Correction: Manually running the command after creating the temp directory
actually doesn't work, but it doesn't error out it just hangs and never
connects to the remote server. Dunno if this is something within gsyncd or

Setting up Geo-replication with an existing 3 TB of data is turning out to
be a huge pain.
It was working for a bit but would go faulty by the time it hit 1TB synced.
Multiple attempts resulted in the same thing.
Now, I don't know what's changed, but it never actually tries to log into

I have about 4 TB of data in a Gluster mirror configuration on top of ZFS,
mostly consisting of 20KB files.
I've added a georeplication target and the sync started ok. The target is
using an SSH destination. It ran pretty quick for a while but it's taken
