Role Variables

Some variables that require review:

• glusterfs_version: GlusterFS client version to be installed using CentOS Storage SIG Packages. Latest stable version is "3.10".
• glusterfs_volumes: List of volumes.
• glusterfs_auto_remount: Default value is "True". If set to "True", when the mount path of a volume is changed, the old mount path will be automatically unmounted and removed from fstab.
