Gluster users - Oct 2008 - Question architecture of GlusterFS

hello, I'm Mario I'm from Colombia and study in the Universidad
Industrial de Santander (www.uis.edu.co) and I have a question about GlusterFS

The architecture of GlusterFS configured as a RAID-1, using 2 nodes, the writing
is done in a node and is replicated in the other node,
question: the reading is done in parallel, since the two nodes where the
information is replicated?

I thank you for your cooperation or recommendation where can I find more
information of the topic.
You can write me at hatrickmario at hotmail.com or for the Gluster General
Discussion List.

Att Mario Bonilla

no.. reading is not done in parallel..
read is done from first available node.
if read from first node fails,
   then read is done through next available node.

if read fails from all nodes,
   then error returned
