Hi Anton, Thanks for this, having a quick read through it looks great. I'd be interested to know what sort of performance you see with gluster providing a replicated file system, have you been able to do some high I/O "burn in" tests on guests? Thanks David On Fri, Aug 17, 2012 at 9:16 AM, A

Diablo (at least for nova, glance, swift) is capable of using keystone there is however a lot of manual configuration needed, something that is on my list for complete when integrating keystone into my 2011.3 deploy per my blog post. All I can say at the moment is this is far from trivial, and fin
