Hm, the setup of volumes is very different from what is done in the 
Gluster Administration Guide. The latter does not touch plain files at 
all but consistently uses the gluster CLI. There is no need to deal with 
"volume raw", "volume brick" or so, and above all there is no 
modification to glusterfsd.vol.
Why the deviation?
