This is starting to look really complicated with NCP Storage units on zfs -> iscsi to gluster unit ext3 since gluster doesn't do zfs -> multiple application host.
Wouldn't using both ncp/zfs with gluster be redundant since gluster does cluster storage to begin with?
I think I might be overcomplicating things here.
Reading up more on gluster, it seems that I could simply put a gluster client on the application server, mount a volume mirrored on from two gluster servers and let gluster handle the failover transparently. _______________________________________________
Emmanual,
I'm very interested to find out what happened with this project and what you ended up doing?
