Thanks. That makes it understandable. I have trash working now. For the sake
of feedback, I am running a single spec file (both server and client in one
process), with two afr'ed bricks in a unify cluster with another non-afr'ed
brick, and the namespace is being afr'ed to all hosts (3 for now). Very easy
with gluster! The idea is to do away with NFS and create a large unified
cluster of afr'ed bricks across our network by using all hosts as servers and
clients.
Wish list: can gluster be made to reload it's spec file rather needing a full
umount/mount? This would allow "on-the-fly" expansion of a unified cluster
when new hosts are brought in or storage expanded. Probably not with fuse?
