It is recommended to use partitions for GlusterFS volumes which are different from the / partition.
The environment on this example is set as that [sdb1] is mounted on [/glusterfs] directory for GlusterFS Configuration on all Nodes.

# show status

node01:~ #
gluster peer status

Number of Peers: 1

Hostname: node02
