[TriLUG] Sharing LUN over iSCSI

[Ron Kelley via TriLUG]

Yes, I believe you can use a single server.  A couple of old threads:

https://serverfault.com/questions/473020/how-many-gluster-volumes-is-allowed-in-single-server


Would be pretty easy to setup a VM to test this out.  On the client side, install the gluster client package and mount it across the network (mount -t glusterfs server1:/devshare /mnt)
