Remember early when I asked about being able to have all bricks update
and read from any client using AFR? Well of course this seems to work
fine in my small limited tests. Would this work well enough that you
could place a database on the bricks and have it be consistent no matter
which brick was being accessed by clients? If so, then I would still
have to work out details of how to snapshot backups (probably will use
LVM) and how to control and administer the db but it seems like it could
be an alternative to other database replication methods. Right now
these require that you find a way to split the reads and writes between
masters and slaves. I would like to get away from having to deal with
that requirement and perhaps glusterfs could help here.
Thanks,
Gerry
