I’ll start my journey in this forum with small information why I ended up trying Rockstor in a first place. I have been using Linux based disk sharing since late 90s and OpenMediaVault for few years now. However, out of curiosity (and due to some stability issues in OMV) I decided to check if there are any alternatives.
I kind of liked how the Rockstor is built and I decided that I’ll give it a try. But before investing in new hardware I will do some tests on VMs just to see if everything works as I like. The idea of simple replication of one share to another in completely different location is a big thing for me. Especially I like that I don’t have to manually set up rsync or similar to achieve this.
So far I have played with two VMs doing the replication between them. I run raid10 setup with multiple small disk images images just to see if everything works as I would expect. With 5.0.5 the replication seems to be broken, but sticking to 4.X seems to be OK (although there were some failures in some replication tasks).
I might be asking some specific questions at some point, but first I need to figure out that the issues are not caused by errors in my configurations.
