Which is shame because I choose GlusterFS for one of my storage clusters
_specifically_ due to the ease of emergency data recovery (for purely
replicated volumes) even in case of complete failure of the software
stack and system disks - just grab the data disks, mount on a suitable
machine and copy the data off.
Anyone knows of distributed FS with similar easy emergency recovery?
(I also run Ceph, but Bluestore seems to be pretty much a black box.)
Kind regards,
Alex.
