Hello，
Can anyone help me and give me some advice?
I have been using GlusterFS for about two years, We use Distributed
Replicated volumes to hold files as NAS, Now I want to hold some VM
images (KVM/Vmware). I am interested in Striped volume to improve IO
performance.
But I found in admin guide, There are notes: *"In this release,
configuration of this volume type is supported only for Map Reduce
workloads" *both for Distributed Striped Replicated and Striped
Replicated volume.
Dose this mean those two kind volumes can't use for VM and other
application?
Which kind of volume is the best practise for hold VM.
Distributed Replication is still the recommended volume type for holding
virtual machine images.
The planned support for sharding in GlusterFS 3.7 [1] will most likely
deprecate striping for all use cases.
Regards,
Vijay
