= GlusterFS Client with Arbiter =

This setup is almost the same as the regular GlusterFS client setup. Except for one difference. The volume file looks different. Complete the normal [[GlusterFS Client|client]] setup, then use the following volume file instead. Notice the added option `option arbiter-count 1` in the `volume replicate` section.

`/etc/glusterfs/home.vol`
