[Gluster-users] Configuration Advice

[Mike Seda]

Hi All,
Does the following GlusterFS config seem solid for a small (24 
compute-node) HPC cluster with a mixed I/O pattern?
- 4 storage-nodes (distribute-only) with 3 bricks
- Each storage-node will be HP DL360 G8 (32 GB RAM, 16 core)
- Each storage-node will have 1 HP D2600 shelf with 12 x 2 TB drives (1 
RAID 10 given to OS as 1 LVM PV)

If so, do you think I get away with only 2 storage-nodes?

Thanks In Advance,
Mike
