Jon, Why not just use replication ? and distribute over the replicated setup ? you can stack it up like that.

Just had a quick question about mounting a volume via fstab at boot time that did not seem to be answered here:http://www.gluster.com/community/documentation/index.php/Mounting_a_GlusterFS_Volume I'd like to be able to specify multiple nodes at boot time, so if the volume is spanned across Nodes A,B,C,D, and A goes down, the system will still automatically mount the volume from B. It seems like you could do that relatively easily referencing a volume file on the client. I would like to avoid maintaining separate volume files on each client if at all possible though. Is there a syntax for providing an fstab line for a gluster mount that will allow the gluster client to try multiple hosts in the event one is down?
