NAME
       GlusterFS - clustered file system

SYNOPSIS
       glusterfs [options] [mountpoint]

DESCRIPTION
       GlusterFS  is  a	 clustered  file system, capable of scaling to several
       peta-bytes.  It aggregates various storage bricks over Infiniband  RDMA
       or TCP/IP and interconnect into one large parallel network file system.
       Storage bricks can be made of any commodity hardware,  such  as	x86-64
       server with SATA-II RAID and Infiniband HBA.

       GlusterFS  is fully POSIX compliant file system. On client side, it has
       dependency on FUSE package, on server side, it works seemlessly on dif‐
       ferent	operating  systems.   Currently	 supported  on	GNU/Linux  and
       Solaris.

OPTIONS
   Basic options
       -f, --volfile=VOLUME-FILE
	      File to use as VOLUME-FILE.

       -l, --log-file=LOGFILE
	      File  to	 use   for   logging   (the   default	is   <INSTALL-
	      DIR>/var/log/glusterfs/<MOUNT-POINT>.log).

       -L, --log-level=LOGLEVEL
	      Logging  severity.   Valid options are TRACE, DEBUG, INFO, WARN‐
	      ING, ERROR and CRITICAL (the default is INFO).

       -s, --volfile-server=SERVER
	      Server to get the volume from.  This option overrides  --volfile
	      option.

       --volfile-max-fetch-attempts=MAX-ATTEMPTS
	      Maximum number of connect attempts to server. This option should
	      be provided with --volfile-server option (the default is 1).

   Advanced options
       --acl  Mount the filesystem with POSIX ACL support.

       --debug
	      Run in debug mode.  This option sets --no-daemon, --log-level to
	      DEBUG, and --log-file to console.

       --enable-ino32=BOOL
	      Use  32-bit  inodes when mounting to workaround application that
	      doesn't support 64-bit inodes.

       --fopen-keep-cache
	      Do not purge the cache on file open.

       --mac-compat=BOOL
	      Provide stubs for attributes needed for  seamless	 operation  on
	      Macs (the default is off).

       -N, --no-daemon
	      Run in the foreground.

       -p, --pid-file=PIDFILE
	      File to use as PID file.

       --read-only
	      Mount the file system in 'read-only' mode.

       --selinux
	      Enable SELinux label (extended attributes) support on inodes.

       -S, --socket-file=SOCKFILE
	      File to use as unix-socket.

       --volfile-id=KEY
	      Key of the volume file to be fetched from the server.

       --volfile-server-port=PORT
	      Port number of volfile server.

       --volfile-server-transport=TRANSPORT
	      Transport	 type  to  get volume file from server (the default is
	      tcp).

       --volume-name=VOLUME-NAME
	      Volume name to be used for MOUNT-POINT (the default is top  most
	      volume in VOLUME-FILE).

       --worm Mount the filesystem in 'worm' mode.

       --xlator-option=VOLUME-NAME.OPTION=VALUE
	      Add/Override a translator option for a volume with the specified
	      value.

   Fuse options
       --attribute-timeout=SECONDS
	      Set attribute timeout to SECONDS for inodes in fuse kernel  mod‐
	      ule (the default is 1).

       --background-qlen=N
	      Set  fuse	 module's background queue length to N (the default is
	      64).

       --congestion-threshold=N
	      Set fuse module's congestion threshold to N (the default is 48).

       --direct-io-mode=BOOL
	      Enable/Disable the direct-I/O mode in fuse module	 (the  default
	      is enable).

       --dump-fuse=PATHR
	      Dump fuse traffic to PATH

       --entry-timeout=SECONDS
	      Set  entry timeout to SECONDS in fuse kernel module (the default
	      is 1).

       --gid-timeout=SECONDS
	      Set auxilary group list timeout to SECONDS for  fuse  translator
	      (the default is 0).

       --negative-timeout=SECONDS
	      Set  negative  timeout  to  SECONDS  in  fuse kernel module (the
	      default is 0).

       --volfile-check
	      Enable strict volume file checking.

   Miscellaneous Options
       -?, --help
	      Display this help.

       --usage

EXAMPLES
       mount a volume named foo on server bar with log level  DEBUG  on	 mount
