This is my puppet-gluster module. I use it to model and monitor my glusterfs bricks, servers, and clients -- but not pools or volumes.

1. Set up servers using puppet
2. Format & mount brick filesystems
3. Add brick declarations to server host manifests (see example below)
4. Probe servers appropriately using gluster cli
5. Create volumes as needed (see example below)
6. Add client declarations to client host manifests (see example below)

gluster volume create myvol_staging replica 2 \
server1.my.domain.net:/bricks/myvol_staging1 \
server2.my.domain.net:/bricks/myvol_staging1 \
server1.my.domain.net:/bricks/myvol_staging2 \
server2.my.domain.net:/bricks/myvol_staging2 \
server1.my.domain.net:/bricks/myvol_staging3 \
server2.my.domain.net:/bricks/myvol_staging3 \

include gluster::server
gluster::server::brick {
    "/bricks/myvol_staging1": device => "e1";
    "/bricks/myvol_staging2": device => "e2";
    "/bricks/myvol_staging3": device => "e3";
}

include gluster
gluster::client::volume {
    "myvol_staging":
        mount_point => "/mnt/myvol",
        volfile_server => "server1.my.domain.net",
        mounted => "mounted";
}

include gluster
gluster::client::nfs {
    "myvol_staging":
        mount_point => "/mnt/myvol",
        volfile_server => "server1.my.domain.net",
        mounted => "mounted";
}

This module also provides the reference implementation of targeted self-heal.

Requirements to use this feature are:

1. Glusterfs version in 3.1 or 3.2 series. It's not necessary on Glusterfs 3.3+
2. Bricks are named <volume>N in a common brick parent directory (eg. /bricks/myvol_staging{0..4})
3. The server with bricks in the volume also has a client mount of the volume

To use, add a gluster::selfheal::hourly declaration to each server with bricks in the volume...

gluster::selfheal::hourly {
    "myvol_staging":
        mount_point => "/mnt/myvol",
        mmin => "-1440";
}

I highly recommend reviewing & customizing this feature to suit your own needs.

• I primarily use Ubuntu so YMMV on other distributions.
• I use my PPA packages which means I install the "glusterd" package for the server. You will need to change that package name to "glusterfs-server" or whatever if you do not use my packages.

• My nagios module (yet to be released; replace with your own)
• My logstash module (yet to be released; comment or remove, for now)
