I've got a 24 node compute cluster. Each node has one extra terabyte
drive. It seemed reasonable to install Gluster on each of the compute
nodes and the head node. I created a volume from the head node:

gluster volume create gv1 rep 2 transport tcp compute000:/export/brick1
compute001:/export/brick1 compute002:/export/brick1
compute003:/export/brick1 compute004:/export/brick1
compute005:/export/brick1 compute006:/export/brick1
compute007:/export/brick1 compute008:/export/brick1
compute009:/export/brick1 compute010:/export/brick1
compute011:/export/brick1 compute012:/export/brick1
compute013:/export/brick1 compute014:/export/brick1
compute015:/export/brick1 compute016:/export/brick1
compute017:/export/brick1 compute018:/export/brick1
compute019:/export/brick1 compute020:/export/brick1
compute021:/export/brick1 compute022:/export/brick1
compute023:/export/brick1

And then I mounted the volume on the head node. So far, so good. Apx. 10
TB available.

Now I would like each compute node to be able to access files on this
volume. Would this be done by NFS mount from the head node to the
compute nodes or is there a better way?

Back in the days of 3.0.x ( ~ 3 years ago ) I made a 'distributed scratch' in a scenario just like yours, Randy. I remember of using gluster's own protocol to access the files, mounting the volume locally.
