Description of problem:

We should be able to find total number of glusterfs fuse client mounts from
server nodes. It should list all the  fuse client.

Depends on why you would want to know about the clients:

1. For most of the use cases, admin might just need to know how many
Samba/NFS servers are currently using the given volume(Say just to perform
umount everywhere).
In this case, each Samba/NFS server is just like a FUSE mount and we can use
the same
technique that we would use for the above case that Pranith has mentioned.

2. If the requirement is to identify all the machines which are accessing a
volume,
(probable use case:- you may want a end-user to close a file etc)
above method won't be sufficient. To get details of SMB clients, you would have
to
run 'smbstatus' command on all SMB server nodes and it would output details of
connected SMB clients in this format.
PID     Username      Group         Machine            Protocol Version    
Service      pid     machine       Connected at
