Hello,
I have a two node replica 3.8 GlusterFS cluster and am trying to find out
the best way to use a GlusterFS volume as persistent storage for docker
containers to store their data (e.g. web assets).
I was thinking that the simplest method would be to mount my GlusterFS
volume for that purpose on all docker nodes using FUSE and then simply
start containers which require persistent storage with a mount of bind
type. For example here is how I would create my container requiring
persistent storage:

docker service create --name testcontainer --mount type=bind,source=/mnt/
gustervol/testcontainer,target=/mnt alpine



What do you think about that? Is this a good way? or is the even a better
way?



If you are using kubernetes, then please have a look at

Otherwise, what you are suggesting works.
