This is a really good initiative Lala.

Anything that helps Operations folks always gets my vote :)

I've added a few items to the etherpad.

Cheers,

      I think it is time to create  an operations/ops guide for
      GlusterFS. Operations guide should address issues which
      administrators face while running/maintaining GlusterFS storage
      nodes. Openstack project has an operations guide [2] which try to
      address similar issues and it is pretty cool.

      IMO these are the typical/example questions which operations guide
      should try to address. 

          Maintenance, Failures, and Debugging

            What are steps for planned maintenance
                for GlusterFS node?

            Steps for replacing a failed node?

            Steps to decommission a brick?

          Logging and Monitoring

            Where are the log files?

            How to find-out if self-heal is working
                properly?

            Which log files to monitor for detecting
                failures?

        Operating guide needs good amount of work, hence we all need to
        come together for this. You can contribute for this by either of
        the following

           Let know others about the questions you want to get
            answered in the operating guide. ( I have set-up a etherpad
            for this [1]) 

          Answer the questions/issues raised by others.

        Comments, suggestions? 

        Should this be part of gluster code base i.e. /doc or somewhere
        else?
