I think it is time to create an operations/ops guide for
GlusterFS. Operations guide should address issues which
administrators face while running/maintaining GlusterFS storage
nodes. Openstack project has an operations guide [2] which try to
address similar issues and it is pretty cool.<br>
<br>
IMO these are the typical/example questions which operations guide
should try to address. <br>

Operating guide needs good amount of work, hence we all need to
come together for this. You can contribute for this by either of
the following<br>
<ul>
<li> Let know others about the questions you want to get
answered in the operating guide. ( I have set-up a etherpad
for this [1]) <br>
</li>
<li>Answer the questions/issues raised by others.<br>
</li>
</ul>
<br>
Comments, suggestions? <br>
Should this be part of gluster code base i.e. /doc or somewhere
else? <br>
