[Gluster-users] Req details for glusterfs implementation
Hi, I am working with a MNC and planning to implement glusterfs for more then 10 servers. I need a efficient disk usage.for example, if i add all the servers in glusterfs with striping, all the servers can get huge disk space.but the problem is no fail over, as per the glusterfs doc. if one server failes, i can't get access mounted volume and "Transport end point" erros is coming. Please suggest my any solution.... Regards, Varad

Use distributed, and if you care about reliability, use distributed replicated. Again, do not use striping. -- Joseph Landman, Ph.D Founder and CEO Scalable Informatics Inc. email: landman at scalableinformatics.com web : http://scalableinformatics.com http://scalableinformatics.com/sicluster phone: +1 734 786 8423 x121 fax : +1 866 888 3112 cell : +1 734 612 4615
