Hello everyone I'm posting this here because I need an advice from you. On all examples presented on the web-site, and the user-config posted here, you always allow a wide range of IP address (something like option auth.ip.brick.allow 192.168.28.* ) My question is : how to I configure the servers in order to accept just a list of IP addresses ? I've tried this config : volume server type protocol/server option transport-type tcp/server interfaces subvolumes brick option auth.ip.brick.allow 192.168.28.6 option auth.ip.brick.allow 192.168.28.7 end-volume and client 192.168.28.6 wasn't able to connect. Error message on this client side is : Transport endpoint is not connected and on the server side, the log give us this : [Apr 30 17:16:57] [DEBUG/tcp-server.c:134/tcp_server_notify()] tcp/server:Registering socket (5) for new transport object of 192.168.28.6 [Apr 30 17:17:08] [DEBUG/proto-srv.c:2418/mop_setvolume()] server-protocol:mop_setvolume: received port = 1022 [Apr 30 17:17:08] [DEBUG/proto-srv.c:2434/mop_setvolume()] server-protocol:mop_setvolume: IP addr = 192.168.28.7, received ip addr = 192.168.28.6 [Apr 30 17:17:08] [ERROR/common-utils.c:55/full_rw()] libglusterfs:full_rw: 0 bytes r/w instead of 113 (errno=17) [Apr 30 17:17:08] [DEBUG/protocol.c:244/gf_block_unserialize_transport()] libglusterfs/protocol:gf_block_unserialize_transport: full_read of header failed [Apr 30 17:17:08] [DEBUG/proto-srv.c:2868/proto_srv_cleanup()] protocol/server:cleaned up xl_private of 0x8050998 [Apr 30 17:17:08] [CRITICAL/tcp.c:82/tcp_disconnect()] transport/tcp:closing socket: 5 priv->connected = 1 [Apr 30 17:17:08] [DEBUG/tcp-server.c:229/gf_transport_fini()] tcp/server:destroying transport object for 192.168.28.6:1022 (fd=5) [Apr 30 17:17:19] [DEBUG/tcp-server.c:134/tcp_server_notify()] tcp/server:Registering socket (5) for new transport object of 192.168.28.6 [Apr 30 17:17:28] [DEBUG/proto-srv.c:2418/mop_setvolume()] server-protocol:mop_setvolume: received port = 1021 [Apr 30 17:17:28] [DEBUG/proto-srv.c:2434/mop_setvolume()] server-protocol:mop_setvolume: IP addr = 192.168.28.7, received ip addr = 192.168.28.6 [Apr 30 17:17:28] [ERROR/common-utils.c:55/full_rw()] libglusterfs:full_rw: 0 bytes r/w instead of 113 (errno=9) [Apr 30 17:17:28] [DEBUG/protocol.c:244/gf_block_unserialize_transport()] libglusterfs/protocol:gf_block_unserialize_transport: full_read of header failed [Apr 30 17:17:28] [DEBUG/proto-srv.c:2868/proto_srv_cleanup()] protocol/server:cleaned up xl_private of 0x804b1e8 [Apr 30 17:17:28] [CRITICAL/tcp.c:82/tcp_disconnect()] transport/tcp:closing socket: 5 priv->connected = 1 [Apr 30 17:17:28] [DEBUG/tcp-server.c:229/gf_transport_fini()] tcp/server:destroying transport object for 192.168.28.6:1021 (fd=5) On the other hand, client 192.168.28.7 is successfully connected.
