+.TH GlusterFS 8 "Cluster Filesystem" "19 March 2010" "Gluster Inc."
+.SH NAME
+GlusterFS \- Clustered Filesystem.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B glusterfsd
+.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, Solaris).
