GlusterFs Management
Installation (Standalone server)
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gluster/glusterfs-5
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install glusterfs-server
systemctl enable glusterd
sudo apt-get install glusterfs-client
Configuration
- Attach a seperate volume in the ubuntu server that can be used for managing gluster volume.
- Example: /glusterfs - extra mount in ubuntu server
- Create data directory and volume directory under that newly created mount
- Example: /glusterfs/volumes and /glusterfs/data
- Since we are using standalone glusterfs server, we can create a gluster volume and point the volume to the volume directory
gluster volume create nginx 10.0.1.5:/glusterfs/volumes/nginx - Start the gluster volume using the following command
gluster volume start nginx - Then mount the data directory related to this Nginx Volume as shown below
mount -t glusterfs 10.0.1.5:/nginx /glusterfs/data/nginx
