<div dir="auto"><div>well, note:</div><div>- you don't need zfs on the hardeware machines, xfs or ext3 or ext4 would do it too</div><div>- for production you wouldn't use a glusterfs on top of a glusterfs but rather giving the vm access to a real blockdevice, like a whole harddisk or at least a partition of it although migration of the vm wouldn't be possible than...</div>
<div>therefor: a VM as a glusterserver might not be the best idea.</div><div>- remember to peer probe the glusterserver partner from both sides! as mentioned below</div><div><br></div><div>for a first setup you should be fine with that.</div>
