Distributed Storage Across Four Storage Nodes With GlusterFS On Fedora 12

This tutorial shows how to combine four single storage servers
(running Fedora 12) to one large storage server (distributed storage)
with GlusterFS.
The client system (Fedora 12 as well) will be able to access the
storage as if it was a local filesystem. GlusterFS is a clustered
file-system capable of scaling to several peta-bytes. It aggregates
various storage bricks over Infiniband RDMA or TCP/IP interconnect into
one large parallel network file system. Storage bricks can be made of
any commodity hardware such as x86_64 servers with SATA-II RAID and
Infiniband HBA.
