[Gluster-devel] Glusterfs and Xen

[Anand Avati]

Unify over DRBD will work if you have a filesystem ready over your DRBD
device. Unify will treat it just like any other fs.
Do you know if your image was being self-healed during the time of boot? If
so, is it possible to tune the timeouts of xen to wait for a bit longer?
