Hi,
Thanks for you your reply.
Here is the part of my configuration file that might explain better what I am
trying to do.
-----------
#glusterfs-server-dream.vol
# dream-mirror is the directory where I would like to have a complete copy of
unify0
volume dream-mirror
type storage/posix
option directory /glusterfs-mirror
end-volume
volume dream
type storage/posix
option directory /glusterfs
end-volume
# namespace for unify0
volume dream-ns
type storage/posix
option directory /glusterfs-ns
end-volume
# another node
volume neo
type protocol/client
option transport-type tcp/client
option remote-host neo # defined in /etc/hosts
option remote-subvolume neo
end-volume
#another node
volume echo
type protocol/client
option transport-type tcp/client
option remote-host echo
option remote-subvolume echo
end-volume
volume unify0
type cluster/unify
option scheduler rr # round robin # going to switch to NUFA
option namespace dream-ns
subvolumes dream echo neo
end-volume
volume afr0
type cluster/afr
subvolumes unify0 dream-mirror
end-volume
volume server
type protocol/server
option transport-type tcp/server
subvolumes dream dream-ns unify0
option auth.ip.dream.allow *
option auth.ip.dream-ns.allow *
option auth.ip.unify0.allow *
# option auth.ip.dream-mirror.allow *
# option auth.ip.afr0.allow *
end-volume
----------
# glusterfs-client-dream.vol
volume unify0
type protocol/client
option transport-type tcp/client
option remote-host 127.0.0.1 # IP address of server2
option remote-subvolume unify0 # use dream on server2
end-volume
----------------
the problem with our network is that it is slow (100MBit/s). So it would be
great if all files (talking about /home/*) would just stay on the
workstations, unless needed somewhere else. So I would like to do a afr over
a unify guy, but so far volume dream-mirror remains empty.
Thanks!
Wolfgang
