hi james, moving this to public. The subject was how to start using jame's puppet modules with the vagrant/gluster examples that we are working on. So here are some bullets to move things forward.
- Here are the functions for creating the gluster setup :
https://forge.gluster.org/vagrant/fedora19-gluster/blobs/master/gluster-hbase-example/setup.sh We basically create a fake disk using truncate, assign it as a brick for the gluster volume, and then mount. From there , we point hbase to that mount point and thats all there is.

- lets disregard the hbase part for now, and maybe you could create a "vagrant+puppet+gluster" starter project that uses some of the logic from this? From there maybe we could work together to hack in the hbase/hadoop/whatever bits to make a puppetized version of these bash files.
The advantage in my eyes of moving to your puppet:
The advantage in my eyes of moving to your puppet:
1) mister james maintains the gluster bits :) :) :)
2) Less implementation details, more logic on how we integrate gluster with bigdata tools
3) the gluster community gets a cool example for learning how to use puppet and gluster together in a completely reproducible, zero startup environment.

Tell you what, if you send me your bash scripts, I'll even "port" them
to puppet-gluster for you. (Or I'll try anyways.)
Can you give me more information about what/how you're trying to drive?

I don't know what a bigtop is (other than a circus tent).
Do you think a screencast would help too?
I should really improve the docs. Ironically, I started writing puppet
so that I wouldn't have to do docs. Haha. I'll try and get on this a
bit.
Okay!
