In fact, we were wondering if we need to bring in the concept of DC
for the gluster view and mark it remote...or just stick with flagging
cluster as Remote :)
I think your second option looks better, considering gluster
does not
have any DC concept. Just stick with flagging cluster as Remote.
Once managed by RHSC (either local or remote), almost all features of
RHSC, should be applicable for that cluster as well. Isn't it?
Users may be more familiar with DC w.r.t DR
