I've been experimenting with Gluster on some small scale hardware, and will be building TrueNAS machines to move my homelab data set. It has not been a flawless experience, but I'm ready to move forward with new storage nodes, TrueNAS Scale, TrueCommand, and more.
Specifically:
I know there are some challenges, beta, etc... But color me very excited anyway.
-------------------------
I have not seen a lot of threads here or elsewhere talking about getting TrueNAS Scale clusters up and running. Anybody care to share what they have done so far?
Specifically:
- 1x Node: HP Microserver Gen 10 Plus nodes, 64Gb memory, 4x 18Tb Seagate EXOS setup in RaidZ2
- Then setup this node as a Distributed in TrueCommand, and mount my containers and shares using the Gluster client.
- When more storage is needed, build more of the above nodes, and add them to the cluster.
- Compute is done on Intel NUCs running Kubernetes, so TrueCommand will be hosted there, with persistence on a Replicated Gluster cluster on the NUCs.
I know there are some challenges, beta, etc... But color me very excited anyway.
