Hello list, Using 1.3.0-pre-2.3, I have configured a two server, single client setup following [1]. Apart from the IP addresses, my config files are identical to those in the user guide. Both servers and client start and run happily. If I write to the mounted filesystem with the client, the file I created appears in /home/export on server1 and /home/afr-export on server2 (and visa versa). The problem comes when I take one of the servers down. If I take down server1, the client can no longer write to the mounted filesystem - it gives me the error "Transport endpoint is not connected", and the client logs contain this: [Apr 19 16:37:19] [ERROR/tcp-client.c:284/tcp_connect()] tcp/client:non-blocking connect() returned: 111 (Connection refused) [Apr 19 16:37:19] [ERROR/client-protocol.c:183/client_protocol_xfer()] protocol/client: client_protocol_xfer: :transport_submit failed [Apr 19 16:37:19] [DEBUG/client-protocol.c:2543/client_protocol_cleanup()] protocol/client:cleaning up state in transport object 0x8076f08 [Apr 19 16:37:19] [DEBUG/tcp-client.c:174/tcp_connect()] transport: tcp: :try_connect: socket fd = 9 [Apr 19 16:37:19] [DEBUG/tcp-client.c:196/tcp_connect()] transport: tcp: :try_connect: finalized on port `1021' [Apr 19 16:37:19] [DEBUG/tcp-client.c:255/tcp_connect()] tcp/client:connect on 9 in progress (non-blocking) [Apr 19 16:37:19] [DEBUG/tcp-client.c:293/tcp_connect()] tcp/client:connection on 9 still in progress - try later [Apr 19 16:37:19] [ERROR/client-protocol.c:183/client_protocol_xfer()] protocol/client: client_protocol_xfer: :transport_submit failed [Apr 19 16:37:19] [DEBUG/client-protocol.c:2543/client_protocol_cleanup()] protocol/client:cleaning up state in transport object 0x8076f08 [Apr 19 16:37:19] [ERROR/tcp-client.c:284/tcp_connect()] tcp/client:non-blocking connect() returned: 111 (Connection refused) [Apr 19 16:37:19] [ERROR/client-protocol.c:183/client_protocol_xfer()] protocol/client: client_protocol_xfer: :transport_submit failed [Apr 19 16:37:19] [DEBUG/client-protocol.c:2543/client_protocol_cleanup()] protocol/client:cleaning up state in transport object 0x8076f08 [Apr 19 16:37:19] [DEBUG/tcp-client.c:174/tcp_connect()] transport: tcp: :try_connect: socket fd = 9 [Apr 19 16:37:19] [DEBUG/tcp-client.c:196/tcp_connect()] transport: tcp: :try_connect: finalized on port `1021' [Apr 19 16:37:19] [DEBUG/tcp-client.c:255/tcp_connect()] tcp/client:connect on 9 in progress (non-blocking) [Apr 19 16:37:19] [DEBUG/tcp-client.c:293/tcp_connect()] tcp/client:connection on 9 still in progress - try later [Apr 19 16:37:19] [ERROR/client-protocol.c:183/client_protocol_xfer()] protocol/client: client_protocol_xfer: :transport_submit failed [Apr 19 16:37:19] [DEBUG/client-protocol.c:2543/client_protocol_cleanup()] protocol/client:cleaning up state in transport object 0x8076f08 If, however, I take down server2, then this problem doesn't occur. Writes happen as normal, but obviously don't appear in /home/afr-export on server1. This brings me on to my next question - when does the resync happen between servers? When I bring server2 back up again, files written to server1 during the downtime are not copied to server2. Is there a particular way to force the resync? Many thanks, Matt.
