Mounting a Volume
To mount using a server supplied client volume file, enter the following command, substituting your server's IP address:
bash# mount -t glusterfs 192.168.0.1 /mnt/glusterfs
To mount using a local client supplied volume file, enter the following command:
bash# mount -t glusterfs /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs.vol /mnt/glusterfs
To automatically mount on every boot, add a line to the /etc/fstab file.
For a server supplied client volume file, add the following line, substituting your server's IP address:
192.168.0.1 /mnt/glusterfs glusterfs defaults 0 0
For a local client volume file, add the following line:
/etc/glusterfs/glusterfs.vol /mnt/glusterfs glusterfs defaults 0 0

Mounting Options
The following options are valid with -t glusterfs. All options have to be a comma separated values with the mount command or in the /etc/fstab file.
- log-level=loglevel
- log-file=logfile
- transport=transport-type
- direct-io-mode=[enable|disable]
- volume-name=volume_name

- If the server's listening port is different than default, enter it similarly to the following example, substituting your port number for 7997:
bash# mount -t glusterfs 192.168.0.1:7997 /mnt/glusterfs
192.168.0.1:7997 /mnt/glusterfs glusterfs defaults 0 0
