Hi Gluster users running on CentOS!

As you may have heard before, we're planning on providing stable Gluster releases and related packages through the CentOS Storage SIG [0]. We would like to know what version of Gluster and which versions of CentOS are most wanted by our users.

The current support for Gluster defines 3 stable releases at the time. This means that 3.7, 3.6 and 3.5 are supported by the Gluster Community. Once 3.8 is released, 3.5 will become unsupported and will not receive any updates anymore. 3.8 is planned to be released early 2016 [1].

We can provide all Gluster packages for CentOS-7 and 6, but CentOS-5 can only get recent versions of the Gluster client.

Now, we want to know which combinations our users like to see in the CentOS Storage SIG:

• CentOS-7 + GlusterFS 3.7: latest and greatest, will be included

• CentOS-6 + GlusterFS 3.7: very much used release, also included

• CentOS-7 + GlusterFS 3.6: some users, you?

• CentOS-6 + GlusterFS 3.6: some users, you?

• CentOS-7 + GlusterFS 3.5: fewer users, you?

• CentOS-6 + GlusterFS 3.5: fewer users, you?

• CentOS-5 + GlusterFS 3.7 (client only): nobody?

• CentOS-5 + GlusterFS 3.6: nobody?

• CentOS-5 + GlusterFS 3.5: nobody?

Please speak up and let us know what versions you depend on for next few months. You can reply to this email to the list (note that it is x-posted, one mailinglist is sufficient for your reply), directly to me or over IRC in #centos-devel or #gluster.

Many thanks, Niels

Hi all,

My production environments runs Gluster 3.7 for CentOS-7/6. I am not planning to use CentOS-5.

Thanks.

Hi Niels,

I guess that's also a decision to take at the Storage SIG level, but (my opinion) I'd think that targeting CentOS 6 and 7 would make sense, and Gluster 3.6/3.7 (we still rely on Gluster 3.6 on CentOS 6 ourselves within the CentOS infra)

I don't think that having CentOS 5 would make sense, but can be done probably if there is "demand" for it. It would be then "interesting" as our Koji build farm (cbs.centos.org) only covers 6 and 7 (and we had no plan on building for 5 anymore, at least from SIGs perspective)

Thanks all who replied! It seems that Gluster 3.6 and 3.7 are the releases we should provide through the Storage SIG. These will become available for CentOS-7 and CentOS-6. We are also looking into providing the Gluster 3.7 client packages for CentOS-5, but that will take a little longer.

Thanks again, Niels
