[Users] Issues using local storage for gluster shared volume

I have been trying for a month or so to get a 2 node cluster up and
running.  I have engine installed on the first node, then add each each
system as a host to a posix dc.  Both boxes have 4 data disks.  After
adding the hosts I create a distributed replicate volume using 3 disk from
each host with ext4 filesystems. I click the 'optimize for virt' option on
the volume.  There is a message in events that says that it can't set a
volume option, then it sets 2 volume options.  Checking the options tab I
see that it added the gid/uid options.  I was unable to find in the logs
what option was not set, I just see a message about usage for volume set
<volname> <option>.  The volume starts fine and I am able to create a data
domain on the volume.  Once the domain is created I try to create a vm and
it fails creating the disk.  Error messages are along the lines of task
file exists and can't remove task files.  There are directories under tasks
and when trying to manually remove them I get the "directory not empty"
error.  Can someone please shed some light on what I am doing wrong to get
this 2 node cluster with local disk as shared storage up and running?

Thanks,

Tony
