Hey there,
Installed, yes. Properly? Kind of.
I'm running gluster 3.7.6 with a two-node distributed volume between a
centos and a freebsd peer.
There is currently a bug where gluster on freebsd is not able to
correctly determine file system information. That is, on my freebsd
peer with ~40T of storage, gluster is reporting 12.6PB of storage. As
gluster believes this server has (far) more available storage, it sends
most of the data on a volume to the brick(s) on that server.
This causes the disk space on the freebsd server to fill up well before
the other server does.
$ sudo gluster volume status ftp detail

My temporary workaround is to disable weighted-rebalance:
[kyle at colossus ~]$ sudo gluster volume set ftp
cluster.weighted-rebalance off
I haven't tested this on any other freebsd boxes, nor have I tested
other types of volumes (e.g. replicated).
In addition, I wasn't able to get the gluster fuse mount to work on
freebsd, though I did not try very hard.
As for the install: $ sudo pkg install glusterfs
Hope this helps,
Kyle
