Hi, this is my first attempt at Gluster storage. Just a quick help me get started question – the bare metal page yields a “not found” on the web site so… I have two dell 2950s fully populated with 5 x 300GB 10K disks. I want to get as much storage out of these as possible. I have two more dell 2950s each with 4 x 146GB 10K disks. Should I build one RAID 5 container on the first two servers, load up CentOS7 and then Gluster on that? using the unused partition of what is left after loading CentOS? Or should I be looking at moving physical disks around and putting the smaller 146 GB disks as RAID 1 in each of the 4 servers for OS and distributing the 300GB disks amoung all the servers and maybe pick some more up on Ebay to get all
4 servers identical? Would appreciate any advice on short notice as I have nothing else to do today for once and would just as soon at least start off on the right foot!
