[Gluster-users] Using other then Trusted namespace for Gluster Extended Attributes
Hi Everybody, Could you please tell me is it possible to configure Gluster to use other namespace then Trusted for Extended Attributes (xattr)? Or is this something that you plan to develop in future? It?s OK to say no ;-). The reason I?m asking is that in unprivileged container (Docker, rootless Podman) it is possible to use "User" namespace (setfattr -n user.abc -v "xyz" file will work) but "Trusted" namespace is just for root (setfattr -n trusted.abc -v "xyz" file will not work). Unfortunately Trusted namespace makes impossible to use Gluster in rootless containers... Thank you. Ben H
