The clients do *not* need to run glusterd.
This is what I hoped to hear. But...
Glusterd is the management daemon, and it needs to run on all the servers. If you shut down the glusterd service, it stops all volumes by killing the GlusterFS processes. This is why you will see your clients return errors. Glusterd interacts with the 'gluster' command-line tool, and is responsible for creating and starting volumes and making changes to volume configuration.
I'm not seeing errors on the clients. The errors (well, warnings actually) I posted are in /var/log/glusterfs/etc-glusterfs-glusterd.vol.log on the *servers*. I can safely ignore them, then?
