Solution

  • If you look at the below two issues

    https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/issues/268

    https://bugs.alpinelinux.org/issues/2834

    It seems it is not possible because few functions used which are not available in case of alpine. There used to be a GlusterFS volume plugin but it seems not maintained any more

    So best would be for you to mount the folder on host and then share it with the docker container via volumes
