<div dir="ltr">Hi Paolo,<br><br>One of the configurations is to have glusterfs as server on each of the nodes exporting a brick. Each node should also have glusterfs running as client having unify translator, unifying all the servers.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi <div><br></div><div> I have a small HPC cluster of 36 nodes (1 head, 35 compute). Each of the nodes has a 1 65GB (~ 2.2TB combined) volume that isn't being used. I thought of using a parallel filesystem in order to put this unused space into good use. The configuration I had in mind is: All nodes will act a bricks and all nodes will act as clients. I have no experience with Gluster and want to know what people on the mailing list thought of the idea, deployment scenario, pros and cons etc ... Any reply will help :-) </div>
