Hi,
most of the current work is focused in hyperconverged using hosted engine and
this includes the installation and a few other features such as not fencing hypervisors
to avoid killing running bricks.
If you do not want to use hosted engine, then you should be able to create bricks
and manage them as a gluster volume which your setup should be able to work with.
If you do not use HA and/or fencing you should be mostly ok with this use case.

Anything specific you're looking for?
