Hi,
I'm starting out with glusterfs, really liking it, it's really great! I have a question--is there any way for a host to appear to export a volume which is available on the network, even though that host does not have a brick associated with that volume? To explain further, I have a number of hosts that are part of a cluster, I would like them all to appear to export the same services (i.e., the glusterfs volume), however on a hardware level only some of them are equipped with drives that are part of the volume. So host A has a brick, host B has a brick, but host C does not. Of the three commands: mount -t glusterfs A:/Volume /mnt/mntpoint mount -t glusterfs B:/Volume /mnt/mntpoint mount -t glusterfs C:/Volume /mnt/mntpoint The first two will succeed, the third will fail. Is there any way to get the third to succeed, short of buying an additional hard disk for host C and adding it to the volume? Is there a "workaround solution" that might involve adding an empty brick? Thanks so much, C. Clauson |
