Re: Ethernet port choice

you can do that but its probably not the best idea.
you are better off bonding the interfaces and using one of the load balancing algorithms instead.
in fact since all of these are TCP you could bond them and put it in RR (round robin) mode if your switches can support it. them you would effectively have a 20G full duplex ling on each one.
the one thing to be careful of is not all switches work well with RR mode bonds so you need to examine your switches capabilities first.

Hi Pierre,
It is possible to do that.
You will have to use IP/hostname assigned to one port for all your gluster operations,
Like peer probe, create etc.(Even for fuse mounts).

If you are using vfs plugin for samba to access gluster
in smb.conf  use "glusterfs:volfile-server = <IP assigned to gluster port>"

You can now give out IP assigned to second port to all 
smb clients and all traffic to Samba would reach over this one.

    Hi everbody,

    I have the last release of glusterfs which work well on a Centos6.5.

    On each node I have two 10Gb ethernet ports. I want to dedicate on
    each nodes a port for the gluster synchronisation and the other port
    will be available for ssh and samba access.

    Is it possible to configure gluster to get that kind of
    configuration ?

    Many thank's
