Because I helped him get it working and I was never able to get posixfs
working but was able to get nfs working.
i have these steps courtesy of haim ateya worth trying:
* add new volume constructed from one brick
- volume name = myVol
- brick dir = /opt/myBrick
* start volume
- ssh to node
* chown -R vdsm:kvm /opt/myBrick
- using ovirt do the following):
* create new DC (Posix compliant FS)
* create new cluster
* add new host (virt)
* new domain dialog
- path = node:/myVol
- VFS Type = glusterfs
- Mount Options = vers=3
* if start vm failedt to selinux - disable SELINUX on host
you would need the newer kernel with direct_io iirc
