Hi to all, I'm going to install gluster over a cluster of 5 machine. Each machine is a quad Xeon, 8G ram and 2x750GB (1,5T in raid 0, XFS) over a gigabit connection. OS is ubuntu.server 8.04. I can update to the new 9.04, if it helps. We want to use it in a NUFA installation. So, the questions: -how the disk space will be used? Will the cluster address 6,5TB? I think it will be less, but I can't find that info into the docs. -we are going to use this cluster to index (whit a lucene-based pipeline) milions of little files: we have big indexes files and milions of little files. I've read about the bdb backend: is it suitable for the NUFA?
