Gluster users - Sep 2015 - GlusterFS 3.7: How are the server's configuration data synchronized

Hi,

Are there any restrictions as to when I'm allowed to make changes to the
GlusterFS
volume (for instance: start/stop volume, add/remove brick or peer)? How will it
handle such changes when one of my two replicated servers is down? How will
GlusterFS
know which set of configuration files it can trust when the other server is
connected
again and the files will contain different information about the volume? If
these
were data files on the GlusterFS volume that would have been handled by the
extended
file attributes, but how about the GlusterFS configuration itself?

Regards
Andreas
