I was expecting you to join earlier :) IIUC, puppet-gluster uses glusterd to perform glusterfs deployments.

With that as a reference could you elaborate on how we could use puppet to perform some (or all) the functions of glusterd? ~KP _______________________________________________ Gluster-devel mailing list Gluster-devel@xxxxxxxxxxx http://supercolony.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-devel
