<p class="MsoNormal">I have been reading the below statement in GlusterFS docs & articles regarding multi-tenancy. Is this statement related to virtual environment ie VM’s. How valid is “partitioning users or groups into logical volumes”. Can someone explain
what it really means. <u></u><u></u></p>
