Your gluster brick must be a directory, not a block device. The
filesystem that directory is located on must supported xattr.

I am new to gluster so please be a bit patient with me.
I am trying to setup a gluster volume with the bricks being /dev/sdb1
(or /dev/sdb, I have tried both) ... etc. however I get an error
message and the operation fails. I do not have the error message
(sorry!) the only brick I have available for testing is tied up at the
moment so I cant rerun the test to get the exact error. If I can I
will post it later.
However if I mount the partition I am able to create the volume no
problem. I have read the admin guide several times but cannot find
any reference to using a block device only a mounted device.
Is it even possible, or am I crazy for even trying?
