This does not sound like a use-case for GlusterFS. Gluster uses a local 
filesystem (like XFS) as backing storage, and that filesystem can only 
be mounted on one node (A or B) at the same time.

If you need a filesystem that can be mounted at two nodes (A and B) at 
the same time, you need to look at filesystems like GFS2.
