Which will allow say for example user in network 1 talk to server in network 1 and that server gets syncd with server in network 2 ?
What is the latency between network 1 and network 2? Volume type replica provides synchronous replication and latency has a significant impact on the overall performance of writes/updates with synchronous replication.
geo-replication provides asynchronous replication and is currently unidirectional (master - slave). If you can use asynchronous replication, you can define two master volumes, one in network 1 and other in network 2. You would also need to define two corresponding slave volumes in network 1 and network 2. With this setup, your clients would be writing to the local network and there should be a general performance improvement.
Are you making use of the samba vfs plugin to access gluster volumes? Regards, Vijay

Windows users use samba sharing to access the mounted volume. Basically my setup is that client machines on each site connect to its local file server so it has the fattest connection. Two files servers are connected via VPN tunnel which has really high bandwidth Right now it is very slow to write files to the volume. Is there any way that I can configure smb.conf or gluster so that it writes to the local brick and that brick gets synced to the other side. How can I make writing/reading files faster via samba. _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> http://supercolony.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list [email protected] http://supercolony.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
