Gluster users - Dec 2014 - A year's worth of Gluster

May I ask why you chose to go with 4 separate bricks per server rather than one
large brick per server?

Thanks
Jason

1 DHT volume comprising 16 50TB bricks spread across 4 servers. Each server has
10Gbit Ethernet.

Each brick is a ZOL RADIZ2 pool with a single filesystem.

Each brick is a JBOD with 16 disks running RAIDZ2. Just seemed more
logical to keep the bricks and ZFS filesystems confined to physical
hardware units, ie I could disconnect a brick and move it to another
server.
