Yes, we recommend glusterfs volume with replica 3 and group profile gluster-block applied.

# gluster volume create myglustervol replica 3 NODE1:/brick1 NODE2:/brick2 NODE3:/brick3 force
# gluster vol set myglustervol group gluster-block
# gluster vol start myglustervol

@pkalever is any plan to support create block on distribute volume? that match to glusterfs service.

pkalever commented 3 years ago

Not really, it needs much more testing efforts.

perrynzhou commented 3 years ago

@pkalever i think that should support all types of volume ,such distribute volume/ec volume/replica volume

pkalever commented 3 years ago

The project is considered to be in maintenance-only status. I will consider adding this in the ReadMe doc soon. Hence I think supporting it is not possible.

Thanks!
