Hello, What is for you the best GlusterFS scenario in using XenServer (i'm not talking about Xen on a linux but XenServer baremetal) for a web farm (Apache-Tomcat) ? I were thinking of using ZFS as the filesystem for the different nodes. The objectives/needs : * A storage cluster with the capacity equal to at least 1 node(assuming all nodes are the same). * being able to lose/take down any

Hi, For small lab environment I want to use GlusterFS with only ONE node. After some time I would like to add the second node as the redundant node (replica). Is it possible in GlusterFS 3.1 without downtime? Cheers PK

Hello all fellow GlusterFriends, I would like you to comment / correct my upgrade procedure steps on replica 2 volume of 3.7.x gluster. Than I would like to change replica 2 to replica 3 in order to correct quorum issue that Infrastructure currently has. Infrastructure setup: - all clients running on same nodes as servers (FUSE mounts) - under gluster there is ZFS pool running as raidz2 with SSD

Hi Folks, I find myself trying to expand a 2-node high-availability cluster from to a 4-node cluster. I'm running Xen virtualization, and currently using DRBD to mirror data, and pacemaker to failover cleanly. The thing is, I'm trying to add 2 nodes to the cluster, and DRBD doesn't scale. Also, as a function of rackspace limits, and the hardware at hand, I can't separate

Hello everybody. I have a problem setting up gluster failover funcionality. Based on manual i setup ucarp which is working well ( tested with ping/ssh etc ) But when i use virtual address for gluster volume mount and i turn off one of nodes machine/gluster will freeze until node is back online. My virtual ip is 3.200 and machine real ip is 3.233 and 3.5. In gluster log i can see: [2011-06-06

Mabi, We have fixed a couple of issues in the quota list path. Could you also please attach the quota.conf file (/var/lib/glusterd/vols/ patchy/quota.conf) (Ideally, the first few bytes would be ascii characters followed by 17 bytes per directory on which quota limit is set) Regards, Sanoj On Tue, Aug 1, 2017 at 1:36 PM, mabi <mabi at protonmail.ch> wrote: > I also just noticed quite

Hello, As you might have read in my previous post on the mailing list I have added an arbiter node to my GlusterFS 3.8.11 replica 2 volume. After some healing issues and help of Ravi that could get fixed but now I just noticed that my quotas are all gone. When I run the following command: glusterfs volume quota myvolume list There is no output... In the /var/log/glusterfs/quotad.log I can see the

Procedure looks good. Remember to back up Gluster config files before update: /etc/glusterfs /var/lib/glusterd If you are *not* on the latest 3.7.x, you are unlikely to be able to go back to it because PPA only keeps the latest version of each major branch, so keep that in mind. With Ubuntu, every time you update, make sure to download and keep a manual copy of the .Deb files. Otherwise you

Hi, The existing syntax in the gluster CLI for creating arbiter volumes is `gluster volume create <volname> replica 3 arbiter 1 <list of bricks>` . It means (or at least intended to mean) that out of the 3 bricks, 1 brick is the arbiter. There has been some feedback while implementing arbiter support in glusterd2 for glusterfs-4.0 that we should change this to `replica 2 arbiter

Hi... Started playing with gluster. And the heal functions is my "target" for testing. Short description of my test ---------------------------- * 4 replicas on single machine * glusterfs mounted locally * Create file on glusterfs-mounted directory: date >data.txt * Append to file on one of the bricks: hostname >>data.txt * Trigger a self-heal with: stat data.txt =>

I tried to re-create manually my quotas but not even that works now. Running the "limit-usage" command as showed below returns success: $ sudo gluster volume quota myvolume limit-usage /userdirectory 50GB volume quota : success but when I list the quotas using "list" nothing appears. What can I do to fix that issue with the quotas? > -------- Original Message -------- >

Hi people, Now I am using the version of gluster 3.6.2 and I want configure the system for fault tolerance. The point is that I want have two server in replication mode and if one server down the client do not note the fault. How I need import the system in the client for this purpose.

Hi Folks, I'm trying to debug an issue that I've found while attempting to qualify GlusterFS for potential distributed storage projects on the FreeBSD-11.1 server platform - using the existing package of GlusterFS v3.11.1_4 The main issue I've encountered is that I cannot add new bricks while setting/increasing the replica count. If I create a replicated volume "poc"

I must ask again, just to be sure. Is what you are proposing definitely supported in v3.8?

Hello, I'm having trouble migrating data from 1 removed replica set to another active one in a dist replicated volume. My test scenario is the following: - create set (A) - create a bunch of files on it - add another set (B) - rebalance (works fine) - remove-brick A - rebalance (doesn't rebalance - ran on one brick in each set) The doc seems to imply that it is possible to remove

Hi all, I have 4 glusterd servers running a single glusterfs volume. The volume was created using the gluster command line, with no changes from default. The same machines all mount the volume using the native glusterfs client: [root at localhost ~]# gluster volume create datastore replica 2 transport tcp 192.168.253.1:/glusterfs/primary 192.168.253.3:/glusterfs/secondary

Hi list, I need a little help, I currently have a cluster with vmware and 3 nodes, I have a storage (Dell powervault) connected by FC in redundancy, and I'm thinking of migrating it to proxmox since the maintenance costs are very expensive, but the Doubt is if I can use glusterfs with a san connected by FC? , It is advisable? , I add another data, that in another site I have another cluster
