Hi, The central storage can export a brick for replication to each of the N servers. Each of the N servers can have afr of a local brick and a brick exported by the server.
A sample configuration can be, Central storage, volume brick-1 type storage/posix option directory /storage/1 end-volume volume brick-2 type storage/posix option directory /storage/2 end-volume . . . . . volume brick-n type storage/posix option directory /storage/n end-volume volume server type protocol/server option transport-type socket subvolumes brick-1 brick-2 . . . brick-n auth.ip.brick-1.allow <server-1 ip address> auth.ip.brick-2.allow <server-2 ip address> . . . auth.ip.brick-n.allow <server-n ip address> end-volume Each of the server can have glusterfs client as, volume local-storage type storage/posix option directory /storage/local/ end-volume volume client type protocol/client option transport-type socket option remote-host <ip address of Central storage> option remote-subvolume <name of the brick exported by the central storage corresponding to this server> end-volume you can experiment with this configuration along with performance translators. regards, On Tue, Nov 11, 2008 at 6:43 AM, Serge Aleynikov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I am new to this list, and would like to find out if GlusterFS can serve > the following need. > > I have N servers running some services that log to local disk on each > server and I need the content of these local logs to be replicated in > "close-to-real-time" to some central storage to be accessible by other > tools. > > Can I use GlusterFS for this purpose?
