[Gluster-users] GlusterFS Multitenancy -- supports multi-tenancy by partitioning users or groups into logical volumes on shared storage
Hello, I have been reading the below statement in GlusterFS docs & articles regarding multi-tenancy. Is this statement related to virtual environment ie VM's. How valid is "partitioning users or groups into logical volumes". Can someone explain what it really means. Is it that I can associate a user/group(UID/GID) like NFS to a glusterFS volumes ? https://gluster.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Administrator%20Guide/GlusterFS%20Introduction/ GlusterFS. It supports multi-tenancy by partitioning users or groups into logical volumes on shared storage. My though was I can do multi-tenancy at volume level as below. * Create a distributed volume named data1 for tenant1 from StorageNode1-5 using Disk1(raided) using NIC-1 network * Similarly create distributed volume named data2 for tenant2 from StorageNode1-5 using Disk2(raided) using NIC-2 network Is my understanding correct ? How is the user/group come into picture. -- Deepak ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This email message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential information.

You have one volume per one tenant. Idea of multi-tenancy is to have multiple tenants on same volume. May be I didn't understand your idea completely.> > > Is my understanding correct ?
