Hi Jeff, Whipped up a script today to persistently add a custom translator to GlusterFS volumes: https://github.com/justinclift/glusterflow/blob/master/filter/glusterflowfilter.sh It uses GlusterFS's "filter" functionality for on-the-fly adjusting .vol files whenever they're generated: http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Glusterfs-filter My implementation is reasonably specific to adding a new "glusterflowclient" translator, but it wouldn't be hard for anyone else to copy and make it work with their own custom translators. eg. A translator to ignore requests for ._* files on OSX, or whatever :) Sure, it's not the greatest approach... (I'm not an elegant coder :>) but this + Glupy should give people a real world way to rapidly prototype their own translators to add custom functionality _now_. No need to code stuff in C, or wait for a future _nice and pretty_ way to add custom translators. (!) Any thoughts? :) Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift -- Open Source and Standards @ Red Hat twitter.com/realjustinclift
