MooseFS is a fault tolerant, network distributed file system. It spreads data over several physical servers which are visible to the user as one resource. For standard file operations MooseFS acts as other Unix-alike file systems. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Created attachment 247954 [details] moosefs 1.6.17 ebuild
Created attachment 247956 [details] moosefs init.d script Makes use of native mfs* binaries, starting only components with configuration files in /etc/mfs*.cfg. This should probably be documented in einfo.
Hello, The Gentoo Team would like to firstly thank you for your ebuild submission. We also apologize for not being able to accommodate you in a timely manner. There are simply too many new packages. Allow me to use this opportunity to introduce you to Gentoo Sunrise. The sunrise overlay[1] is a overlay for Gentoo which we allow trusted users to commit to and all users can have ebuilds reviewed by Gentoo devs for entry into the overlay. So, the sunrise team is suggesting that you look into this and submit your ebuild to the overlay where even *you* can commit to. =) Thanks, On behalf of the Gentoo Sunrise Team, Michał.

Hello, As a cluster herd member, I'm interested in this ebuild proposal and I hope it's not too late Mike :) I have worked on an ebuild quite close to yours Mike and as you seem to be using mooseFS, I'd like your input on it if possible. The ebuild is available in the ultrabug overlay via layman, would you mind giving it a shot please ? (some files changed place, make sure you try in a test environnement) Thanks a lot
Sorry, for late answer, I read the notification and then totally forgot about it. I've dismantled all the gentoo installations I've had since then, so I can't really test ebuild any better than you. I still run mfs on exherbo though, building it from the following exheres: http://goo.gl/3W6EE Anyway, I don't think there should be any problem with any paths, as long as you pass -c parameter (every daemon binary accepts it) and have these path in cfg files. I've also seen mfs built with /etc/mfs confdir on fedora (rpmfusion package), so guess it should work as well.

Alright mate thanks for your answer, I'll test it and push it to tree then. Regards
