<div>Hi,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We are planning to use GlusterFS for an application that can potentially create about 100,000 volumes (each of quite small capacity).</div>
<div>At any time, only about a 500 of them could be mounted across multiple compute nodes.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is there any limit on the number of volumes a GlusterFS cluster can have?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I would also like to know:</div>
<div>- if there is any performance impact of having a large number of volumes</div>
<div>- do we need to provision any resources differently for this</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks & Regards,</div>
<div>Tanmay.</div>
