[Short Tip] Fix mount problems in RHV during GlusterFS mounts

When using Red Hat Virtualization or oVirt together with GLusterFS, there might be a strange error during the first creation of a storage domain:

Failed to add Storage Domain xyz.

One of the rather easy to fix reasons might be a permission problem: an initial Gluster exported file system belongs to the user root. However, the virtualization manager (ovirt-m bzw. RHV-M) does not have root rights and such needs another ownership.

In such cases, the fix is to mount the exported volume & set the user rights to the rhv-m user.

$ sudo mount -t glusterfs 192.168.122.241:my-vol /mnt
# cd /mnt/
# chown -R 36.36 .

Afterwarsd, the volume can be mounted properly. Some more general details can be found at RH KB 78503.
