The management here refers to interaction of the process/library with the glusterfs management daemon which is glusterd for its own purpose. GFAPI is currently intended to be used only as a interface/api to the file glusterfs filesystem and not for management operations. Do you have a specific requirement which would require such a feature from GFAPI? There are other projects being developed to provide API for management operations like http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Features/rest-api -- *Raghavendra Talur *
