Hello,

 

I have been reading the below statement in GlusterFS docs & articles regarding multi-tenancy. Is this statement related to virtual environment ie VM’s. How valid is “partitioning users or groups into logical volumes”. Can someone explain what it really means.

Is it that I can associate a user/group(UID/GID) like NFS to a glusterFS volumes ?

My though was I can do multi-tenancy at volume level as below.

 

·         Create a distributed volume named data1 for tenant1 from StorageNode1-5 using Disk1(raided) using NIC-1 network

·         Similarly create distributed volume named data2 for tenant2 from StorageNode1-5 using Disk2(raided) using NIC-2 network

 

Is my understanding correct ? How is the user/group come into picture.
