Practical limits to the number of volumes?

[joseph.santaniello at gmail.com (Joseph Santaniello)]

Hello All,

I am exploring options for deploying a Gluster system, and one
possible scenario we are contemplating would involve potentially
thousands (1-2000) of volumes with correspondingly thousands of
mounts.

Are there any intrinsic reason why this would be a bad idea with Gluster?

The reason this is being contemplated has to do with lvm snapshots in
a replicated setup.

Thanks,

Joseph
