Well the idea is to build a dual server cluster in a box using hardware meant more for Windows storage server 2012. This way we do not need to replicate data across the nodes since the 2 servers see the same block storage and you have active failover on all the hardware. Dataon has a system for this and they even suggest using gluster however, I cannot seem to figure out how to implement this model. All gluster nodes would need to be active and there doesn't seem to be a master - slave failover model. Thoughts? On Aug 19, 2014 1:14 PM, "Justin Clift" <[email protected]> wrote:
