I am using GlusterFS to make my storage between several servers can be 
replicated with fault tolerance. And I am doing the similar way as

http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/GlusterFS_iSCSI

It works well, but in the process of
dd if=/dev/zero of=disk3 bs=2G count=25

it needs long time as for my storage volume is around 1TB. I have one question 
about whether there is some way to make gluster volume can be exported as an 
iScsi target without creating disk files?
For iscsi, it support both disk file and logical unit like /dev/sdb1, but it 
seems it could not support normal folder like the mount folder from glusterFS.

Can anybody kindly advise?

Thanks,
Cong
