Also machines hardware are not so powerful. I wanna to know what should be the accessibility delay range in different cases? Can GlusterFS support "High Availability" in a fastest way as it's possible?<br>

Hi All,<br>
<br>
I'm new to GlusterFS. I'm searching around a solution for our enterprise<br>
application that is responsible to save(and manipulate) historical data<br>
of industrial devices. Now, we have two stations that works like hot<br>
redundant of each other. Our challenge is in case of failure. For now,<br>
our application is responsible to handling fault by synchronizing the<br>
files that changed during the fault, by itself. Our application is<br>
running on two totally independent machines (one as redundant) and so<br>
each one has its own disk.<br>
We are searching around a solution like a "high available transparent<br>
file system" that makes the fault transparent to the application, so in<br>
case of fault, redundant machine still can access the files even the<br>
master machine is down (replica issue or such a thing).<br>
Is there fail-over feature in GlusterFS that satisfy our requirement?<br>
Actually, my question is that can GlusterFS help us in our case?<br>

It sounds like you need the AFR/replicate functionality. So yes, GlusterFS may fit your requirements, depending on what degree of split-brain prevention guarantees you require.<br><font color="#888888">
