Question:
Poll time! I think I overdid it: I have 7 storage classes in my cluster. There are 3 for local storage (Longhorn) and 4 for network storage (Synology). The good thing is that it gives me flexibility.
Storage classes:
- longhorn (reclaim=delete) - replicated across 2 nodes
- longhorn-retain - also replicated
- longhorn-fw1-local (reclaim=delete) - not replicated, exists only in a dedicated NVMe in the fw1 node, with much more space than the replicated classes
- {iscsi,nfs}-{delete,retain} - self-explanatory
I'm wondering if the classes with reclaim policy retain is overkill, since any important data that I care about is backed up outside the cluster anyway. Feel free to cast a vote below, but I would appreciate if you also comment why.
