Gluster users - Aug 2014 - LSI Syncro CS with Glusterfs

Hey everyone,

I was wondering if anyone has used the LSI Syncro CS controllers to build a
HA node pair (CiB) to run glusterfs on so that you would not need to use
replication? Trying to see if this is a viable solution considering it
significantly reduces the cost for duplicated storage. Also reduces the
need to Active-Active storage.

If you have any insight into building a HA glusterfs cluster without using
replication it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Trying in my head to picture how this would work with GlusterFS
architecture, but I'm not seeing it.

How are you thinking of putting things together? :)
