I have replied about this in other mail. Basically we just need integration
with gdeploy (or similar tool) to install gluster and create the xfs
backend for starting the distaf run.

The other issue was not having the disks in the machines provisioned by
duffy. But this was discussed and IIRC the temporary solution was to run
with loopback mount.
