I want to deploy 8 Gluster server on one Physical server, My reason: My servers have 8 HDDs, I not run RAID because I want to gain max IO of all HDD. (RAID 5, RAID6 only faster (IO) 2 time compare with single HDD) So I deployed 8 Gluster Server on single Physical server, each glusterserver mount with one HDD 1 client connected to 8 Gserver (with different ports). And all seem run well. (config: distribute, round-robin) I see Total-Performance is much better than single gluster Server/Single physical server with RAID5 I want to ask: if with this way is NORMAIL config (not abnormal ?), and have not any warning than single Gluster server/single Physical Server? (I also replicate data each server to protect data, and in the future, my system will extend, with more physical server, more client... ) Thanks for your help!
