Hi Humble,

Thanks for the update...the mount point is the ip address to mount the
gluster volume,so if this server goes down...all the VM's will pause :-

Some one from community suggest me to use the localhost instead of the ip
address for HA....but i have doubt if i use localhost...then whenever any
node goes down the VM's of the failed node will not migrate to another
node... ??

Thanks,
Punit Dambiwal
