I'm also new to this, but after doing some research, I'm going for the following glyphs as soon as I hit 80(78 now):
Major: Glyph of Blocking
Major: Glyph of Shield Wall
Major: Glyph of Cleaving
Minor: Glyph of Charge
Minor: Glyph of Thunder Clap
Minor: Glyph of Bloodrage
I'm currently using
Major: Glyph of Revenge
, but only because it helps when levelling.
The main reason why I'm going for these glyphs(and the accompanying
Improved Disciplines
build) is because when starting out I will probably tank a lot of heroics and possibly Naxx as OT and those will help more in those instances.
This
is the build I'm looking at currently.
I am abit worried about threat generation as I will be starting out in low/medium(ah bought) gear and this build is based around mitigation and not threatgen, but I'm gonna try this out and see how it goes.
Good luck!

The reason I chose devastate is to be able to get those sunders up much more quickly. Especially with melee DPS, it really helps to have the armor reduction on a boss up ASAP (which is why getting sunder to 5 is the first think you do when tanking a boss).
The difference between Devastate with and without the glyph is an average of 4.8% additional armor reduction over six seconds. Even if your raid is absolutely stacked with melee DPS and you're banging bosses down in two or three minutes flat, it's not even worth doing the math beyond that point.
The main reason to use Devastate glyph is for the extra 315+5%AP threat. The double sunders are just a side benefit (but still a very good benefit).
