end-volume

volume gfs-afr
 type storage/posix
 option directory /mnt/gluster/afr-gfs1
end-volume

volume iothreads1
 type performance/io-threads
 option thread-count 8
 subvolumes gfs
end-volume

volume iothreads2
 type performance/io-threads
 option thread-count 8
 subvolumes gfs-afr
end-volume


volume server
 type protocol/server
 option transport-type tcp/server
option listen-port 6996
 subvolumes iothreads1 iothreads2
 option auth.ip.gfs.allow *
 option auth.ip.iothreads1.allow *
 option auth.ip.iothreads2.allow *
 option auth.ip.gfs-afr.allow *
end-volume
