Hey folks, Running a 3 node HCI cluster (in testing stages) I would love to hear your input. All nodes are exactly identical and have a local storage of 8tb in SSDs made out of a RAID6. Gluster was setup to match this (Raid6, cluster of 256k). There is the option of compression & dedup, coming from ZFS this is a memory hog and kind of insane. What are your thoughts on compression & dedup at this time? The effective size of the compressed drive is suggested 10-fold of the original sizes. Seems a big crazy high; any suggestions here? Thanks for your input! -Chris. -- Christian Reiss - email@christian-reiss.de /"\ ASCII Ribbon support@alpha-labs.net \ / Campaign X against HTML WEB alpha-labs.net / \ in eMails GPG Retrieval https://gpg.christian-reiss.de GPG ID ABCD43C5, 0x44E29126ABCD43C5 GPG fingerprint = 9549 F537 2596 86BA 733C A4ED 44E2 9126 ABCD 43C5 "It's better to reign in hell than to serve in heaven.", John Milton, Paradise lost.
