Hi,
I want to mount gluster volume as a root file system for my node.
Node will boot from network( only kernel and initrd images) but my root file system has to be one of the gluster volume ( bricks of the volume are on the disks which are attached to the same node). Gluster configuration files also part of the root file system.
Here i am facing chicken and egg problem. Initially i thought to keep glusterfs libs, binary in the initrd and start the gluster server as part of initrd execution. But for mounting root file system (which is a gluster volume), all the gluster configuration files are stored in the root file system. My assumption is, without gluster configuration files(/var/lib/glusterd/xx) gluster will not find any volumes.
Can someone help me on this?
