Yes, I am currently configuring Glusterfs servers using 10Gb Ethernet connecting to (ultimately) hundreds of clients on 1Gb Ethernet. 2) If not currently, are you considering using 10GigE with Gluster servers or clients ( or platform ) in the future ? N/A 3) Which make, driver and on which OS are you using or considering using this 10GigE technology with Gluster ? Current HP Proliant platform for both clients and servers, running CentOS 5.2 on the clients and 5.4 on the servers. Driver /lib/modules/2.6.18- 164.el5/kernel/drivers/net/ixgbe/ixgbe.ko 4) If you are already using this technology, would you like to share your experiences with us ? Sure. Currently doing a head to head evaluation / pilot of Gluster 3.0.4 vs. Lustre 1.8.1. 6 storage bricks with 37.5 raw TB of attached storage each. Looking to measure read, write, and mixed I/O using 1 to 7 clients (in the prototype configuration) with all machines sitting on the same VLAN. Backbone of network is 10Gb. More to come as results become available. Your feedback is extremely important to us. Please write to me soon.
