Hello,
Maybe I'm border-line with oVirt but I think it is a critical part of a
virtual infrastructure, so...
I understand that GlusterFS is a good storage solution for oVirt VM but
I have a couple of questions :
- does GlusterFS support FibreChannel (in order to have equivalents
to the SAN Datastores of the VMware world) ?
- is GlusterFS performant enough to support a lot of VM with a lot of
nodes (entreprise infrastructure) ?
- has GlusterFS some limitations or constraints ?
- can GlusterFS be used (out of oVirt) for high I/O needs ?
Thank you.
David.

Hello,
Well, I did not have success with my questions ;-) May be you have
considered they were too far from oVirt...
For the first one, after further research, I've found that it is OK
(GlusterFS over FC [SAN mode])...
But, about performance, I can't find useful results... Do you have
links about GlusterFS vs other FS (VMFS, GPFS, etc...) ?
Thank you.
David.

Some quick searching reveals this for performance:

there also was a performance comparison done by some ceph people
between ceph and gluster on their blog, you should easily find it.

Thank you for these links... I will read the documents...
David.
P.S. : if you have experience with GlusterFS, with or without oVirt,
that interests me too and feel free to contact me directly...
