Ovirt 4.1 gluster with libgfapi

Hi, I was going through gluster document it was talking about libgfapi, that gives better performance. And I also went through many bug description and comment and mail thread in ovirt group. But still not understood, how to enable libgfapi ? Is it supported in 4.1 ? I am confuse. Please help me to understand whether it supported or not. If supported, then how can I enable it ? or use it ? Thanks, ~Rohit

It will reach 4.1.x at some point, it's still in the works. It'll be enabled via an engine-config parameter. See https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/80061/ for specific patch (still in the works). Y.
Thanks, ~Rohit

See also this page http://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/storage/glusterfs-s... and the "Open Issues" part that points to bugzilla entries. It seems it is ON_QA and we are near there for 4.1.5 and VDSM 4.19.25 hopefully Gianluca

Unfortunately it is not yet there. All the hard work is done and i hope it will be in 4.1.5 release.

It is not supported yet, i believe it will be in 4.1.5 You will be able to enable it with command engine-config -s LibgfApiSupported=true I would like to emphasize once more - is it not supported yet and command, mentioned above, will not do anything useful right now.

Thanks Denis, Can anyone help me to know when 4.1.5 will be release ? (release date).
