I am mounting a gluster volume on several clients for shared access. The uid's and gid's of the users and groups do not match on each of the clients, so a given user could have a different uid on each client. I plan to control access to the volume via IP addresses in auth.allow. If an IP address can connect to the volume, then the client can have full access to all the files, regardless of the user and group who owns each file. Based on my use case, how can I set file permissions knowing that the uid and gid will not match? My background is with cifs where you can set a fixed uid and gid when you mount, but I don't believe the native gluster client supports this. Could one option be to use setfacl and set a default acl for all users to have full access to all files? This would mean I would be effectively ignoring the owner and group of each file. Are there downsides to this approach? Or is there another way I can set this up with gluster? Thanks for your help.
