I’m new to Rancher. I’m running 1.1.0-dev5 on 3 VMware vSphere virtual machines. I was following the [GlusterFS instructions](http://docs.rancher.com/rancher/latest/en/rancher-services/storage-service/), but I’m not having any luck. The glusterfs stack is running, but the convoy-gluster stack is stuck in a loop - it never completes the startup. Any suggestions?

Here’s a [screenshot](https://tmpdmp.com/f44c9e1911cb6f55/dff96b44a8bd4344) of the issue.
