<p>Hi, <br>
</p>
<p>glusterFS is working fine for large files (in most of the cases
it's used for VM image store), with docker you'll generate bunch
of small size files and if you want to have a good performance may
be look in [1] and [2].</p>
<p>Also two node replica is a bit dangerous in case of high load
with small files there is a good risk of split brain situation,
therefore think about arbiter functionality of gluster [3], I
think if you'll apply recommendations from [1] and [2] and deploy
arbiter volume.</p>
<p>Cheers</p>

<div>Hello,<br>
</div>
<div>I have a two node replica 3.8 GlusterFS cluster
and am trying to find out the best way to use a
GlusterFS volume as persistent storage for docker
containers to store their data (e.g. web assets).<br>
</div>
<div>I was thinking that the simplest method would
be to mount my GlusterFS volume for that purpose
on all docker nodes using FUSE and then simply
start containers which require persistent storage
with a mount of bind type. For example here is how
I would create my container requiring persistent
storage:<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>docker service create --name testcontainer
--mount type=bind,source=/mnt/<wbr>gustervol/testcontainer,<wbr>target=/mnt
alpine<br>
</div>
<div
class="m_6396911218922792078protonmail_signature_block
m_6396911218922792078protonmail_signature_block-empty">
<div
class="m_6396911218922792078protonmail_signature_block-user
m_6396911218922792078protonmail_signature_block-empty">
<div><br>
</div>
</div>

m_6396911218922792078protonmail_signature_block-empty"><br>
</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>What do you think about that? Is this a good
way? or is the even a better way?<br>
