For example, with 2 server and 8 SATA disk each, I can create a single XFS filesystem for every disk and then creating a replicated bricks for each. For example: server1:brick1 => server2:brick1 server1:brick2 => server2:brick2 and so on. After that, I can use these bricks to create a distributed volume. In case of a disk failure, I have to heal only on disk at time and not the whole volume, right? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
