Hello, I'm driving some experiments on grid'5000 with GlusterFS 3.2 and, as a first point, i've been unable to start a volume featuring 128bricks (64 ok) Then, due to the round-robin scheduler, as the number of nodes increase (every node is also a brick), the performance of an application on an individual node decrease! So my question is : how to STOP the round-robin distribution of files over the bricks within a volume ? *** Setup *** - i'm using glusterfs3.2 from source - every node is both a client node and a brick (storage) Commands : - gluster peer probe <each of the 128nodes> - gluster volume create myVolume transport tcp <128 bricks:/storage> - gluster volume start myVolume (fails with 128 bricks!) - mount -t glusterfs ...... on all nodes Feel free to tell me how to improve things Fran?ois -- ------------------------------------------------------------- THIEBOLT Francois \ Your computer seems overloaded ?
