Re: gluster + synology

After some further digging it looks like Synology used to support GlusterFS in some of their software but support was removed in early 2016: https://www.synology.com/en-us/releaseNote/CMS

In theory, you can run GlusterFS on a Synology box, as it is "just a Linux box".  In practice, you might be the first person to ever try it.

Not sure if this would be the first attempt. Synology seems to bundle glusterfs in some form [1].

Hi,
Does anyone have any experience of using Synology NAS servers as bricks in a gluster setup?  The ops team at my work prefers Synology since that is what they are already using and some of the nice out-of-the-box admin features. From what I can tell Synology runs a custom linux flavor so it should be possible to compile gluster on it. Any first hand experience with it?

Thanks,
Ben
