    Is Writeback caching safe?

    NDK73: I understand the concept of bbu, but I have no idea why it is useful only for some storages as Spirit has written. I have problem booting my migrated vms without setting cache to writeback on the glusterfs, as I found this solution somewhere. When I create a new vm on top of gluster...

    Is Writeback caching safe?

    Spirit: Why can be writeback useful only for some storages? So without BBU it is not recommended? I can run my vms on gluster only when using writeback, without this, my vm could not start due to IO errors.

    glusterfs on failed zfs pool and automatic failover

    Hi, I created a striped zfs pool on two nodes and then put replicated glusterfs on top. This is just testing cluster so no spare drive or raidz.
