GlusterFS is an open-source, distributed file system that can scale out in a linear fashion, allowing users to easily manage large amounts of data across multiple servers. In this tutorial, we will walk through the steps required to install GlusterFS on Clear Linux Latest.
Before proceeding with the installation, ensure you have:
Update your system:
sudo swupd update
Install the glusterfs-server package:
sudo swupd bundle-add glusterfs-server
Start the GlusterFS service:
sudo systemctl start glusterd
Enable GlusterFS to automatically start at boot:
sudo systemctl enable glusterd
Set up the GlusterFS volume. In this example, we will create a volume named test-volume with two nodes:
sudo gluster volume create test-volume replica 2 transport tcp <node1>:/data <node2>:/data force
Replace <node1> and <node2> with actual hostnames or IP addresses of nodes in the cluster.
Start the GlusterFS volume:
sudo gluster volume start test-volume
You have successfully installed and configured GlusterFS on Clear Linux Latest. You can now use it to manage and distribute large amounts of data across your cluster.
In this tutorial, we covered the steps required to install GlusterFS on Clear Linux Latest. Once you have GlusterFS set up, you can use it to efficiently store and manage large amounts of data across multiple servers.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
