AFAIK multiple network scenario only works if you are not using Gluster
via FUSE mounts or gfapi from remote hosts. It will work for NFS access
or when you set up something like Samba with CTDB. Just not with native
Gluster as the server always tells the clients which addresses to
connect to: ie your storage hosts will always supply the connection
details of the hosts that are configured in gluster to your storage clients.
I wonder if this could be gaffer-taped with some bridging/vlan/arp
spoofing trickery but I'm not sure I'd trust such a hack.
It would be *really* nice if there was a way to set up gluster so you
could specify different IPs for backend and frontend operations.
