GlusterFS

GlusterFS is a free software parallel distributed file system, capable of scaling to several petabytes.

GlusterFS is a network/cluster filesystem. GlusterFS package comes with two components, a server and a client. The storage server (or each in a cluster) runs glusterfsd and the clients use mount command or glusterfs client to mount the exported filesystem. Storage can be kept scaling beyond petabytes as demand increases.

To mount GlusterFS file systems, the client computers need FUSE support in the kernel.

For details, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GlusterFS

Installing

At the time of this writing, there is no FreeBSD port for gluster, you will first need to install FUSE manually.

cd /usr/ports/sysutils/fusefs-kmod
make install clean
echo "fusefs_enable="YES"">>/etc/rc.conf
sh /usr/local/etc/rc.d/fusefs start

Next you will need to compile and install the glusterFS manually.

cd /tmp
fetch http://ftp.zresearch.com/pub/gluster/glusterfs/1.4-pre/glusterfs-1.4.0pre5.tar.gz
tar -zxf glusterfs-1.4.0pre5.tar.gz
cd glusterfs-1.4.0pre5

export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib -liconv"
export CFLAGS="-O0 -g -DDEBUG -I/usr/local/include/"
./configure -enable-fuse-client
make install clean

Freebsd 7: Both client and server were installed successfully

Known Issues

ISSUE #1 (Freebsd 7 client) - cannot use fstab to mount the fuse partition:

glusterfs -f /usr/local/etc/glusterfs/client.vol /usr/local/www/mantis/files  => works
 
FSTAB:   /usr/local/etc/glusterfs/client.vol        /usr/local/www/mantis/files     glusterfs    rw    0     0
mount: /usr/local/etc/glusterfs/client.vol : Operation not supported by device => the error

ISSUE #2 (Freebsd 6.2 client) – Client segfault

[root@martini] $ glusterfs --no-daemon --log-file=/dev/stdout --log-level=DEBUG -f /usr/local/etc/glusterfs/client.vol /usr/local/www/mantis/files
