Joe,

Thank you.

That's what results you're looking for, but nothing about the workload
---We are in the testing phase and right now the there is no workload.

Changes made through the cli (gluster volume set) change the volume configuration state. You can see those state files under /var/lib/glusterd/vols/$volname. The *fuse.vol file is what the client retrieves from the servers at mount time or when there's a change that affects the client.
