Hi There,<br>
<br>
We are planning to implement GlusterFS on CentOS-6 across two
datacenter's. The architecture we are planning is :<br>
<br>
<b>SAN Storage 1 - SiteA</b> > announce via iSCSI > <b>GlusterFS
Server 1 - SiteA</b><br>
<b>SAN Storage 2 - SiteB</b> > announce via iSCSI > <b>GlusterFS
Server 2 - SiteB</b><br>
<br>
Once glusterfs configuration is done then each site will have its
own virtual machines <br>
<br>
<b>SiteA - VM1</b> > GlusterFS client installed > mounted from
<b>GlusterFS Server 1 - SiteA</b><br>
<b>SiteB - VM2</b> > GlusterFS client installed > mounted from<b>
GlusterFS Server 2 - SiteB</b><br>
<br>
We want each site to read/write on its own glusterfs node instead of
mounting it from <b>SiteA</b> to VM's in SiteA and SiteB and using
<b>SiteB glusterfs</b> node as backup.<br>
<br>
Though POC seems to be working fine with xfs filesystem. I need to
check couple of things here:<br>
<br>
1. The setup above is correct and we can use glusterfs mounted on
each site with Replicated Gluster.<br>
2. We want to add third datacenter for DR using geo replication,
will that work with above setup. We have not done POC for geo
replication yet.<br>
<br>
Looking forward for response.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
