[Gluster-users] Preliminary 3.3 Admin/User docs?

[Harry Mangalam]

There have been quote a lot of hints and suggestions about what 3.3 
will provide. I'm runnning 3.3b1, but am having trouble figuring out 
just what features it has and how to exploit them.

In particular, the ability to force a brick to unload is apparently 
available in  3.3.0qa15 (ref below), but how does one go about doing 
this, other than reading source code?

Are there preliminary Admin docs or a wiki where this info is being 
assembled?  I looked thru the docs on the gluster site but there 
doesn't seem to be much in the way of docs such as the very useful but 
now a bit dated 'Gluster_FS_3.2_Admin_Guide.pdf'

The Gluster Management Console is now in early release:
<http://download.gluster.org/pub/gluster/glustermc/1.0/Documentation/User_Guide/html/index.html>
and has some docs - is this what we're supposed to use to manipulate 
our glusterfs's?

best wishes
harry
