GlusterFS : Geo Replication2023/06/19 |
|
Configure GlusterFS Geo Replication to create a replication volume of a GlusterFS volume on a remote site.
This configuration is general Primary-Replica (read only replica) settings.
For example, Configure Geo Replication to a Gluster Volume [vol_distributed] like an example of the link here.
Primary and Replica are both in internal network on this example, though, it's possible to configure Geo Replication over the internet.

| [1] |
Create a volume for replication on Replica Nodes (node03, node04), refer to here.
It proceeds with a volume named [secondary-vol_distributed] on this example. |
| [2] | On all Nodes, install required packages. |
|
root@node01:~# apt -y install rsync
|
| [3] | On a Node that makes replication volume, change settings of the volume. |
|
root@node03:~# gluster volume set secondary-vol_distributed performance.quick-read off volume set: success |
| [4] | On a Node that makes primary volume, set SSH key-pair. It proceeds with [root] account and with no-passphrase on this example. By the way, if you set like this example, it needs to change sshd settings temporarily to [PermitRootLogin yes]. However, if the servers are internet facing one, you had better to transfer keys with other secure ways without changing sshd even if temporary. |

| [5] | On a Node that makes primary volume, create Geo replication sessions. |

| [6] | On a Node that makes primary volume, and also On a Node that makes replication volume, enable shared storage feature. |
|
root@node01:~# gluster volume set all cluster.enable-shared-storage enable volume set: success |
| [7] | On a Node that makes primary volume, configure meta-volume and start Geo replication. After starting Geo replication, try to wtite files on a primary volume to verify replication works normally. |
