+.SH NAME
+GlusterFS \- Clustered Filesystem.
+.SH SYNOPSYS
+.B glusterfs
+.I [options] [mountpoint]
+.PP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+GlusterFS is a clustered file-system capable of scaling to several peta-bytes. It aggregates various storage bricks over Infiniband RDMA or TCP/IP interconnect into one large parallel network file system. Storage bricks can be made of any commodity hardware such as x86-64 server with SATA-II RAID and Infiniband HBA.
+GlusterFS is fully POSIX compliant FileSystem. On client side, it has dependency on FUSE package, on server side, it works seemlessly on different OSes. (Currently supported on GNU/Linux, Mac OSX, FreeBSD, OpenSolaris).
