Hello I would like some suggestions on what type of solution with Gluster i should use. I have 4 hosts with 3 disks each, i want to user as much space as possible but also some redundancy, like raid5 or 6 The 4 hosts are running oVirt on CentOS 7 I have 2 clusters due to some licensing issues, so i cant use ovirts setup of gluster Today i have set it up as follows Type: Disperse Number of Bricks: 1 x (8 + 4) = 12 So i have 3 bricks per host (one brick per disk) But this setup is not working very well, as soon as i get some traffic on the volume this start to fail on the ovirt nodes, loosing connection etc. All hosts are connected via 10G interface So any suggestions on how i would set this up as best is much appreciated. Regards Magnus Isaksson

I did not quite get this - are you saying you can have only 2 nodes in one cluster?
Today i have set it up as follows Type: Disperse Number of Bricks: 1 x (8 + 4) = 12
Disperse volumes are not supported with oVirt. It's either replica 3 or replica 2 + arbiter.
So i have 3 bricks per host (one brick per disk)
But this setup is not working very well, as soon as i get some traffic on the volume this start to fail on the ovirt nodes, loosing connection etc.

I have 2 hosts per cluster, and i have 2 clusters, 4 hosts (its an Huawei x6000) I know oVirt don't support disperse, that's why i run gluster outside of oVirt. And doing that i get a bit more freedom with setting up gluster. So what would be an good setup to be able to use as much space as possible and some redundancy with the 4 hosts i have? //Magnus ________________________________ From: Sahina Bose <sabose@redhat.com> Sent: 16 April 2019 10:55 To: Magnus Isaksson Cc: users Subject: Re: [ovirt-users] Gluster suggestions On Tue, Apr 16, 2019 at 1:42 PM <magnus@vmar.se> wrote:
