Q:

Does GlusterFS require XFS or can it work with other file systems?

I am trying to install GlusterFS and I see all the instructions utilize the creation of an XFS mount point, is it a limitation that GlusterFS requires XFS?  Can it work with vfat or ntfs mounts?

A:

GlusterFS works on any filesystem which supports extended attributes (EA).
An example is Gluster on ZFS
