That was my impression too, but unfortunately someone told in this mail
list recently that Gluster isn't that clever to work without RAID
Controllers and when disks fail it imposes some difficulties for
replacement. Perhaps someone with more knowledge could clarify this
point which certainly is beneficial to people.

Hi, can you check IOPS? and state # of VM's ? do : iostat -x 1 for a

Isnt RAID discouraged ? AFAIK gluster likes JBOD, am I wrong?

Have a question in regards to storage performance. I have a
gluster replica 3 volume that we are testing for performance. In
my current configuration is 1 server has 16X1.2TB( 10K 2.5
Inch) drives configured in Raid 10 with a 256k stripe. My 2nd
server is configured with 4X6TB (3.5 Inch Drives) configured Raid
10 with a 256k stripe. Each server is configured with 802.3 Bond
(4X1GB) network links. Each server is configured with write-back
on the raid controller.
I am seeing a lot of network usage (solid 3 Gbps) when i perform
file copies on the vm attached to that gluster volume, But i see
spikes on the disk io when watching the dashboard through the
cockpit interface. I spikes are up to 1.5 Gbps, but i would say
the average through put is maybe 256 Mbps.
Is this to be expected, or should it be a solid activity in the
graphs for disk IO. Is it better to use a 256K stripe or a 512
strip on the hardware raid configuration?
Eventually i plan on having the hardware match up for better
performance.
Thanks
Bryan
