Jon,

Why not just use replication ? and distribute over the replicated setup ? you can stack it up like that.

Subject: Mounting gluster volume from fstab at boot - Specifying multiple server nodes


Hello. glusterfs is flat out awesome.  

Just had a quick question about mounting a volume via fstab at boot time
that did not seem to be answered
here:http://www.gluster.com/community/documentation/index.php/Mounting_a_GlusterFS_Volume

I'd like to be able to specify multiple nodes at boot time, so if the
volume is spanned across Nodes A,B,C,D, and A goes down, the system will
still automatically mount the volume from B. It seems like you could do
that relatively easily referencing a volume file on the client.

I would like to avoid maintaining separate volume files on each client
if at all possible though.


Is there a syntax for providing an fstab line for a gluster mount that
will allow the gluster client to try multiple hosts in the event one is
down?


Thanks,
 jon
