Hi Jordi,

I'm not a Gluster developer and I think you might find the following links
very helpfull:

http://www.gluster.org/docs/index.php/GlusterFS_High_Availability_Storage_with_GlusterFS
http://www.gluster.org/docs/index.php/GlusterFS_Translators#Automatic_File_Replication_Translator

Best regards,
Daniel Colchete
