I think I'm gonna love GlusterFS. NUFA option for local volume in the Translator page shows one local volume option nufa.local-volume-name posix1 If the local server has 2 local volumes, is it okay to define them both under nufa.local-volume-name or should it be unique ? Also, is it better to define one io-threads translator for a defined unified volume or one io-threads translator per volume used by the unified volume ?

Yes you can.

You can have a look at the NUFA scheduler in this case. It might suit your needs better than the others. avati -- If I traveled to the end of the rainbow As Dame Fortune did intend, Murphy would be there to tell me The pot's at the other end.
