At one point I would like to be able to install Gluster Storage Servers and have them automatically detected. I'd like to be able to place them in a Trusted Storage Pool after detection (peer probe). For this, I started a gluster-zeroconf project on GitHub [1]. It currently is in a proof-of-concept state, and I would like to have some feedback if this approach is useable for others than me. The current functionality is like this: - install gluster-zeroconf-avahi on a number of storage servers - install python2-gluster-zeroconf on at least one of the storage servers - run `gluster-discovery` from the python2-gluster-zeroconf package - all discovered storage servers will be listed - run `gluster-discovery probe` to peer probe all discovered servers A few more details are in the README at [2]. Future enhancements could include: - plugin for GlusterD 2 - detection of unused local disks (spare bricks) - register newly detected systems at Heketi Feedback much appreciated!
