[rhos-list] Gluster UFO 3.4 swift Multi tenant question

[Ramana Raja]

Hi Paul,

Currently, gluster-swift doesn't support the feature of multiple accounts/tenants accessing the same volume. Each tenant still needs his own gluster volume. So I'm wondering how you were able to observe the reported behaviour.

How did you prepare the ringfiles for the different tenants, which use the same gluster volume?  Did you change the configuration of the servers? Also, how did you access the files that you mention? It'd be helpful if you could share the commands you used to perform these actions.

Thanks,

Ram

Adding gluster swift developers who might be able to help.
