Hi,

Sorry for the late reply. So I summarized that NFS with DRDB is enough for POC 
purpose but not recommended for large scale production, where ceph would be 
more suitable.

Thanks for the insight for this problem.

Hi. I wouldn't recommend go with HA NFS, because you have to use it in sync
mode which leads to poor performance.

I suggest using ceph with ssd (or even optane for log devices), because
it's the thing which is supposed to be clustered and kvm "knows" how to use
it properly and handle node outages via librados.

But, still, nfs sync over drbd and keepalived should work, but not a
scalable solution, of course.
