Im a bit confused with the different options for clusters and high availability. Maybe someone can clear up my confusion or link me the correct documentation.
I have two identical systems with 6 hard drives each. I want to mirror the data from one system so that I can continue accessing the data even if for example one mainboard fails.
The simplest solution would probably be to schedule an rsync task every night.
Now I saw that Scale supports cluster and high availability. Can I set up a cluster with 2 nodes so that I can access the two systems as if they were one system with redundancy? How would I do that?
I read that I need 3 clusters for Gluster. But I dont really understand why 3 nodes would be needed.
What setup would you recommend here?
Thanks in advance
