Virtualization environments are one of our major focus areas right now. We have contributed to the oVirt project to add GlusterFS support (http://git.et.redhat.com/?p=ovirt-server.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/next). We hope you'll use GlusterFS too! Vikas --
Isn't there also an issue where, if a file is open on a replicated GlusterFS, the process accessing the file will get an error if the node it had open goes down (even though there's a replica available)? Or is there already a way around that or in the works?
If this is an issue, then a virtual machine open from an image on a replicated GlusterFS would think it lost its filesystem and freak out, and you'd have to kill and restart the virtual machine.
Thanks, Brent
