I am using gluster in a minimal, non-replicated setup to replace nfsv4. I could not make nfsv4 work with gnome shell and firefox in Fedora 15 - it was trivial to freeze the nfs server and the client desktops. Switching to gluster fixed these issues for me. Gory details here: http://www.mail-archive.com/users at lists.fedoraproject.org/msg40298.html I use the native gluster mount, called from /etc/rc.d/rc.local: mount -t glusterfs /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs.vol /fileserver > Why are you restarting the server? Routine maintenance (upgrade from Fedora 15 to Fedora 16, for example, or testing new gluster server rpms, or debugging systemd issues). - Mike
