GlusterFS 9 : Replication Configuration2021/05/08 |
Configure Storage Clustering with GlusterFS.
For example, Create a Replication volume with 3 Nodes.
It's possible to create Replication volume with 2 Nodes but it's not recommended because split-brain syndrome maybe happens on [replica 2 volume].
As a countermeasure for split-brain, it is recommended to create volume with more than 3 Nodes or set [arbiter volume].
| +----------------------+ | +----------------------+ | [GlusterFS Server#1] |10.0.0.51 | 10.0.0.52| [GlusterFS Server#2] | | node01.srv.world +----------+----------+ node02.srv.world | | | | | | +----------------------+ | +----------------------+ | +----------------------+ | | [GlusterFS Server#3] |10.0.0.53 | | node03.srv.world +----------+ | | +----------------------+ |
It is strongly recommended to use partitions for GlusterFS volumes that are different from the / partition.
On this example, it shows settings on the environment that all nodes has [sdb1] and mount it to [/glusterfs]. |

[2] | Create a Directory for GlusterFS Volume on all Nodes. |
[root@node01 ~]# mkdir -p /glusterfs/replica |
[3] | Configure Clustering like follows on a node. (it's OK on any node) |
