In this tutorial were going to set up a glusterfs cluster with a replicated folder for use as webroot (/var/www/html) for our webservers. This means that all the servers we run have the same files in the webroot. I’ve run this set-up on Raymii.org in combination with a Round-Robin DNS on 8 OpenVZ servers. I’ve now switched to something different because GlusterFS consumed more ram than available on my low-end servers. Note that this only covers file-replication, not database replication. This for example can work good for static media files (images, video) or websites that run without a database (like mine, or static html). In combination with a round-robin DNS it provides a semi-HA setup.

Just 8 days ago I stated that, if I could pull together just $4,000 in contributions, I would Open Source (under the GPL) all of the applications and games you see on this site. As of about 10 minutes ago, we have hit $4,001 (and some change). That’s right. We pulled it off. Because we are awesome. We showed that we, as a community, could rally together to fund a developer working full time on Open Source applications. Now What? Now things get fun. Tomorrow I will be updating this website and releasing free (as in beer) builds of all of the software available here (including Linux Tycoon, Illumination Software Creator, etc.). Then I will be setting up project tracking tools and source control for each application… and uploading the source code licensed under the GPL.

One week ago today, I said that I wanted to Open Source (under the GPL) all of my software. And, that if I hit $4,000 in contributions by midnight on Monday, the 4th (today), it would happen. As of the last tally (earlier today), we had broken $3,000. At the current rate, we’ll likely hit around $3,500 by midnight. So I’m extending the goal line out by a few days. Let’s, say, Friday. At sundown. In Seattle, WA [aka 9:05 PM Pacific Time]. Another, even more, arbitrary deadline. But that gives plenty of time to meet the goal.
