Working on glusterfs test environment as mentioned here, so far everything’s working with some headache.
- have 4 nodes up and running and join into same pool, make all extra disks (sdb, sdc, sdd) XFS (fdisk then mkfs, so sdb mentioned below is actually sdb1)
- create distributed-replicated volume gfs_v0 with gfs11:sdb+gfs12:sdb and gfs11:sdc+gfs12:sdc
- mount gfs on all these 4 boxes (I don’t have dedicated client hosts …)
- copied 16 450M~500M tgz files to gfs_v0, everything looked fine
