Section Number and Name: 
6.3.3. Sharing Volumes over SMB

Describe the issue: 
Previously all GlusterFS volumes were being exported by default via smb.conf in a Samba-CTDB setup. This includes creating a share section for CTDB lock volume too which is not recommended. Along with few syntactical errors these scripts failed to execute in a non-Samba setup in the absence of necessary configuration/binary files.

Result: Hereafter newly created GlusterFS volumes are not exported as SMB share via Samba unless either of 'user.cifs' or 'user.smb' volume set options are enabled on the volume.

Suggestions for improvement: 

gluster volume set user.cifs enable
or 
gluster volume set user.smb enable
