That's funny because I've answered questions like this several times.

Gluster+Ganesha+Pacemaker-based HA is available up to GlusterFS 3.10.x.

If you need HA, that is one "out of the box" option.

There's support for using CTDB in Samba for Ganesha HA, and people have
used it successfully with Gluster+Ganesha.
