Thank you for the confirmation Strahil! As our current environment is more or less the same (except the Hardware RAID, which is not possible with NVMe disks), we planned to use Gluster. I guess we will proceed as we originally planned as we are satisfied with the performance. On 3/11/22

Red Hat Gluster Storage is discontinued, but the Gluster (upstream) is pretty active and as Sandro Bonazzola (RH) confirmed -> there are no plans to remove support for Gluster.I think it's still a good choice, especially if you don't have SAN/ Higly-Available NFS. Also, storage migration is

Thanks to Nikolov and Strahil for the valuable input! I was off for a few weeks, so I would like to apologize if I'm potentially reviving a zombie thread. I am a bit confused about where to go with this environment after the discontinuation of the hyperconverged setup. What alternative options

Using the wizzard is utilizing the Gluster Andible roles.I would highly recommend using it, unless you know what you are doing (for example storage alignment when using Hardware raid). Keep in mind that the DHT xlator (the logic in distributed volumes) is shard aware, so your shards are spread

Hi all, Feel free to give your personal opinion whether software RAID makes any sense at all with oVirt Node or what your architecture would be given the mentioned hardware (3 servers, 6 800GB NVME disks, 18 7.68TB NVME disks). Thanks a lot for any feedback, Jonas
