I can't help you with anything vagrant related until it properly supports libvirt/kvm.

Have you looked at gluster::simple ? https://github.com/purpleidea/puppet-gluster/blob/master/examples/gluster-simple-example.pp AFAICT, that's all you need. My understanding is that you're just trying to build a simple throw away cluster... Let me know if I misunderstood. If you want to customize your volume further, you can use it like this: class { '::gluster::simple': #path => '', # defaults to $vardir/data/ # NOTE: this can be a list... volume => ['hbase', 'foobar'], replica => 1, } HTH! For now, I'll think about adding a screencast and better docs.
