Create a disk image in /dev/shm dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/shm/disk.img bs=1M count=100 losetup /dev/shm/disk.img /dev/loop0 Now is /dev/loop0 your ram based disk :) Grtz, Jiri On May 14, 2013, at 1:00 PM, Isak Nuhić <isak.nuhic@xxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi, > > is it possible to use ram-disks as bricks for building volumes in GlusterFS?
