thanks James, however when I check gluster volume create command, I didn't find any command line options that let me specify how much volumes I can use, so if I have 6 nodes, each have a raw disk, and if I want to create 2 volumes, I can either use 4 nodes to create gluster pool, then create the volume, and use another 2 nodes to create gluster pool, then create another volume, Is any way that I can create 2 volumes by using all my 6 nodes? Can you help give me command or point me some where the link that I can study? Thanks! Xiaobin Zhang(???)
