Hi Guys.

I've created my very first RPM's and I would like some people to test 
them if you have the time/resources to do so.

They were built and tested by me on a bare-bones CentOS 4.4 system. I've 
included both the binary and source packages, for peoples interest. If 
there are any suggestions I would appreciate them as I'm new to RPM 
packaging.

I've had to package fuse as well, as I cant find an rpm for CentOS 4 so 
I've included that as well.


Fingers crossed :)


Oh - for the newbies just wanting to try out glusterfs, i've included an 
examples rpm. This rpm is for single-server evaluation of glusterfs. It 
sets up three bricks (/storage/example-brick{1,2,3}) and a number of 
shell scripts (/bin/glusterfs-example-{help,list,etc...}) and the 
configuration files (/etc/glusterfs/example-{...}). The scripts setup 
start three glusterfsd instances, and sets the client config file to 
either a round-robin scheduled unify, or afr cluster. They are only 
quick scripts, but I feel are useful for first-timers who just want to 
get something up and running. They can look at the scripts to see how 
things run, etc.


As I said, fingers crossed


Feedback is welcome.

Thanx, Matt.
