[Gluster-users] General questions

[Cristian Del Carlo]

Hi,

I'm testing glusterfs before using it in production, it should be used to
store vm for nodes with libvirtd.

In production I will have 4 nodes connected with a dedicated 20gbit/s
network.

Which version to use in production on a centos 7.x? Should I use Gluster
version 6?

To make the volume available to libvirtd the best method is to use FUSE?

I see that stripped is deprecated. Is it reasonable to use the volume with
3 replicas on 4 nodes and  sharding enabled?
Is there convenience to use sharding volume in this context? I think could
positive inpact in read performance or rebalance. Is it true?

In the vm configuration I use the virtio disk. How is it better to set the
disk cache to get the best performances none, default or writeback?

Thanks in advance for your patience and answers.

Thanks,
