You get what you pay for? Try the 30 day trial for support until you are comfortable enough admining it on your own. These guys need to put bread on their table to you know... That said, compared to the DRBD support team the gluster team actually does try and support the free editions as much as possible. When I first started using gluster (it was still in beta, and im still using that install on a few servers) having them even on the list to point out little things was a benefit I didn't find with most other OS projects. If they take a little while to get back to you, but you don't have to pay for it, it just means you have to get used to everything before you put it in production. You need to spend the time tinkering so they can spend the time doing what they need to do. Free as in speech, not as in beer...
