It's fairly easy to do by hand, but there is also a Puppet-Gluster module to automate it, and it integrates with Vagrant. Disclaimer: I'm the author of this code, so of course, I think it's a great idea to use it. When I first started testing gluster, this enabled me to try different configurations and get familiar with how it works. # the code https://github.com/purpleidea/puppet-gluster # some related articles https://ttboj.wordpress.com/ Try out GlusterFS, and once you've used it for a week, come back with the harder questions :) When you want professional support, you can also go to RedHat and get support too!
