Setup a NFS Server and Client on the Raspberry Pi
Setup a NFS Server/Client on the RaspberryPi 3 Setup the Server Side - Disks and Directories Prepare the directories: $ sudo mkdir -p /opt/nfs $ sudo chown pi:pi /opt/nfs $ sudo chmod 755 /opt/nfs For demonstration, I will…
Adding Bricks to your GlusterFS Volume to Increase Storage Capacity
So you've reached a point where you have run out of storage and you need to scale or allocate more storage to your GlusterFS Volume. ( function() { if (window.CHITIKA === undefined) { window.CHITIKA = { 'units' : [] }; }; var unit = {"calltype":"async[2]","publisher":"rbekker87"…
Replace Faulty Bricks in GlusterFS
Previous Posts: From our GlusterFS Series we have covered the following: GlusterFS: Distributed Replicated Volume GlusterFS: Distributed Storage Volume GlusterFS: Replicated Storage Volume GlusterFS: Adding Bricks to your Volume GlusterFS: Replace Faulty Bricks Replacing Faulty GlusterFS Bricks: Today we will…
Setup a GlusterFS Distributed Replicated Volume
Today we will setup a Distributed-Replicated GlusterFS Volume. ( function() { if (window.CHITIKA === undefined) { window.CHITIKA = { 'units' : [] }; }; var unit = {"calltype":"async[2]","publisher":"rbekker87","width":728,"height":90,"sid":"Chitika Default"}; var placement_id = window.CHITIKA.units.length; window.CHITIKA.units.…
Using Minios Python SDK to interact with a Minio S3 Bucket
In our previous post, we have Setup Minio Server which is a self-hosted alternative to Amazon's S3 Service. We will go through some basic examples on working with the Python SDK, to interact with Minio. Installing the Minio Python Library:…
Run Your Self-Hosted S3 Service With Minio on Docker Swarm
Minio is a distributed object storage server built for cloud applications, which is similar to Amazon's S3 Service. Today, we will create the server on docker swarm, as I don't currently have a external data store like GlusterFS / NFS etc,…
Setup a 3 Node Replicated Storage Volume with GlusterFS
In one of my earlier posts on GlusterFS, we went through the steps on how to setup a Distributed Storage Volume, where the end result was to have scalable storage, where size was the requirement. What will we be doing…
