I like the idea @ahasenack, if you have bandwidth for that... or at
least to keep this in the backlog...

In my previous discourse doc:

https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ctdb-create-a-3-node-nfs-ha-backed-by-a-clustered-filesystem/11608

I even talked about CTDB + NFS HA and quoted GlusterFS as an example:

"""
SUMMARY

2 x clustered filesystem servers (could be GlusterFS servers)
3 x nodes as clients to this Clustered Filesystem
The 3 NFS nodes will act as clients to Clustered FS
The 3 NFS nodes will act as servers for NFS service
The NFS service will be High Available among all 3 nodes
NFS clients can DNS load balance among the 3 x NFS servers
If 1 NFS server goes down, the other NFS server will act on its behalf
All NFS servers will serve the SAME FILESYSTEM
CTDB lock file MUST reside in a clustered filesystem directory
"""

Just checked and we're synced with Debian in 8.1-1 for GlusterFS.

I'm +1 as I have always liked GlusterFS =).
