I think he is talking about 1 set of servers, having some clients mount via NFS and some mount via native gluster.

I did this in a test environment with 3.2.5 and it seemed to work OK. We had four nodes initially set up as gluster native and we changed over one by one to nfs. The world did not end. But it was in a test environment.

if you are using 3.2.x, then you can mount it on the same servers

Subject: [Gluster-users] Switching clients to NFS

I'm looking at switching some clients from native gluster to NFS. Any advice on 
how to do this as transparently as possible? Can both mounts be used at the 
same time (so I can test NFS before switching)? I'm on a vanilla 2-way AFR 
config where both clients are also servers.
