[one-users] OpenNebula head node as a virtual machine?

[Shankhadeep Shome]

If you do plan to use glusterfs as a vm backing store and use glusterfs
replication then look into glusterfs 3.3 beta 3, you will see why as you
read the documentation. I am using glusterfs 3.2.6 but without replication
to store VMs.
