Description Karthik U S 2018-05-18 10:37:00 UTC

Description of problem:
There is no way other than manually creating the vol file for thin-arbiter and starting this process on the node where we need thin arbiter to be running.

Provide a custom volfile for thin-arbiter and script which starts this process by itself. Also provide the custom rpm to install thin-arbiter.

and once set it should not be changed.

This is the Unit file used by systemd to start and keep the thin-arbiter
process running.

3 - thin-arbiter.vol

thin-arbiter process. This should not be modified by user except the
directory path which can be modified using [1].
