Red Hat Storage, based on the upstream GlusterFS project, was developed as a distributed file system in the oil-and-gas, high-performance compute arena. With Red Hat Storage, you can easily set up flexible distributed storage using commodity x86 hardware. Simple, inexpensive internal or JBOD storage can be linked across multiple physical servers and presented as a single storage namespace. This storage can be used for log files, web content, virtual machine, home directory, and other storage use cases. In this session, we’ll demonstrate how to: Install Red Hat Gluster Storage Configure disks Link the storage nodes Define storage bricks Present storage to clients We'll talk about tips and tricks, best practices, backup and recovery, and other storage-related topics.
