Hello, I want to comment with you the configuration that I would realize on my HPCC cluster: The cluster is 32 worker nodes (wn1 ... wn32) each one has a local disk, Infiniband 40 Gb is the connection network and I have also a login server (login-server). I would create a glusterfs distributed volume using the worker node disks (in total 32 disks 1TB) by running this command on login-server: login-server# gluster volume create scratch wn1:/brick wn2:/brick .. wn32:/brick After this I would mount the volume on each node of the cluster so that for example if I write file1 in scratch on wn1 node I'll write on the local disk of wn1. The question is if I can mount scratch in wn1 using this command: wn1# mount -t glusterfs wn1:/scratch /scratch This permits me to write file1 locally not using network channel, isn't it? Thank you for your attention and your contribution.
