Hi there,

Mmmm, if you use /etc/fstab or glusterfs client, you will be accessing the gluster via FUSE.

And that s*cks.

I do a trick on my proxmox cluster, as well gluster cluster. I do have one 10Gb interface dedicated to gluster on each node, and another 1Gb interface dedicated to proxmox cluster. So, in hosts, my config is more or less this one.

#PROXMOX NODES
10.0.0.1 pve01
10.0.0.2 pve02
#GLUSTER NODE
192.168.100.10  g01
192.168.100.20  g02

Until this point, completely normal, now, on the first node (pve01/g01) y put on hosts
192.168.100.10 gluster

And this other hosts line on node pve02/g02
192.168.100.20 gluster

So, on proxmox GUI I mount gluster:VOLUMENAME. Each node mounts its own mountpoint and on the redhat cluster, the resource is called the same: gluster.

Its a trick if your virtualization nodes are also storage nodes, which is my case.
Hope it helps.

Hello,


As I think that I reply to my own question after searching in GlusterFS
documentation, I'm wondering if anybody from Proxmox's staff here can
guide me.

In fact, GlusterFS has an option to specify a backup node to the primary
one. In a replicated setup, it permits to be sure that the client points to the healthy node.

It's specified in the mount command or /etc/fstab on the client side, like :

# mount -t glusterfs -o backupvolfile-server=volfile_server2,fetchattempts=
2,log-level=WARNING,log-file=/var/log/gluster.log server1:/testvolume
/mnt/glusterfs

If backupvolfile-server option is added while mounting fuse client, when
the first volfile server fails, then the server specified in backupvolfile-server option is used as volfile server to mount the client.


Basically my question is : Where can I find the GlusterFS client mount entry on Promox ? And do you plan to implement that functionality in the GUI and qemu ? (It would be awesome)


For anybody on that topic, you can find more information here :

or in the official Administration Guide

Thanks,
Regards
