<br>
We have a few proxmox 3 node clusters with a glusterFS brick on each.<br>
The proxmox are configured to use "localhost" as the gluster server,<br>
which works very well.<br>
<br>
We are thinking of bumping the proxmox clusters to 5 nodes, but without<br>
putter bricks on the 2 new ones (because of a bug I already mailed about<br>
a few months ago), basically we just need more ram. My question is the<br>
following : can I install glusterfs and peer probe the new servers<br>
without putting a brick on them and still use localhost as the server ?<br>
<br>
For example :<br>
<br>
s1, s2 and s3 are proxmox nodes and have each a brick of a replica 3 volume.<br>
We add s4 and s5 to the gluster by running peer probe, but we don't<br>
add a brick on them. Will localhost:/VMs work on s4 and s5 ?<br>
I believe it will, since it'll have access to the volume on the other members<br>
of the gluster, but I'd like to be sure before I go throught the trouble<br>
of setting all of this up.<br>
<br>
(I also have one of the original servers as backup volfile, but who knows<br>
if that'll always be up, I like using localhost since if localhost is down<br>
I have other problems anyway :D)<br>
<br>
Thanks !<br>
