Building a Gluster filesystem for a Proxmox cluster
Instead of the network RAID 1 device formed by DRBD, we can also place our VMs into a Gluster filesystem.
As we have stated before, we will install three VMs with the CentOS platform for demonstration, based on the following network configuration:
|
Hostname |
VM node |
IP address |
Subnet mask |
Interface |
|---|---|---|---|---|

For our practice, we set up three physical servers connected to the same network in which the Proxmox is located; we assign the vmbr0 interface (to know how to configure it, please refer to the network preparation section of this chapter) for them to use. I assume that you have already set up the hostname, IP configuration, and the /etc/hosts file.
Tip
Each VM should have at least 512 MB memory installed.
After the network has been configured, we...
