[Gluster-users] Use single large bring or several smaller ones?
Having experimented with Gluster for the last month I'm now ready to create a set-up for production. This will be the storing VM images. These are less than 100GB each, with the majority being around 20BG. The plan is to have 5GB of storage using a replication pair to allow for fail-over, with geo-replication to another server for backup purposes. The underlying disks on each server are RAID 10. Am I better off creating a single 5GB brick on each server or would there be advantages in creating several smaller bricks? Thanks, John

That title should say "brick", not "bring". I thought I had auto-correct disabled. Sorry.
