Did you confirm the peers were working after adding them in as adding a host updates the firewall.

Yes here it is.

[root@gfs1 ~]# gluster
gluster> peer status

Want to confirm you are using gluster 3.3 not 3.2.

Yes using 3.3

Installed Packages
glusterfs.x86_64                         3.3.0-5.fc17          @fedora-glusterfs
glusterfs-fuse.x86_64                    3.3.0-5.fc17          @fedora-glusterfs
glusterfs-geo-replication.x86_64         3.3.0-5.fc17          @fedora-glusterfs
glusterfs-rdma.x86_64                    3.3.0-5.fc17          @fedora-glusterfs
glusterfs-server.x86_64                  3.3.0-5.fc17   

I reviewed your steps.  The only thing I can think is let us say you create a /data directory.  When I am adding bricks should I add for instance 10.4.0.97 /data 10.4.0.98 /data 10.4.0.99 /data 10.4.0.100 /data?  Those are the directories I have created and owned on each server 36.36 -R /data.

So I have a problem creating glusterfs volumes.  Here is the install:

  1. Ovirt 3.1
  2. 4 Nodes are Fedora 17 with kernel 3.3.4 - 5.fc17.x86_64
  3. 4 nodes peer joined and running
  4. 4 nodes added as hosts to ovirt

  1. created a directory on each node this path /data
  2. chmod 36.36 -R /data all nodes
  3. went back to ovirt and created a distributed/replicated volume and added the 4 nodes with brick path of /data

I received this error:

Creation of Gluster Volume maingfs1 failed.

I went and looked at the vdsm logs on the nodes and the ovirt server which did not say much.  Where else should I look?  Also this error is vague what does it mean?

You can review the steps I did to get a working gluster setup at http://www.middleswarth.net/content/installing-ovirt-31-and-glusterfs-using-either-nfs-or-posix-native-file-system
