Tsukasa, --attr-timeout is an indication to the kernel on how long it has to cache attributes of an inode before doing a filesystem (network) call to refresh it. --entry-timeout is an indication to the kernel on how long it has to keep the dentry in the dcache before doing a refresh call with the filesystem. transport-timeout in the protocol/client tells how long the client has to wait for a response from the server before deciding that the network connection is broken. avati 2007/12/7, Tsukasa Morii <tsukasa.morii@xxxxxxxxx>: > > Hi, > > I'm using glusterfs 1.3.7 and would like to know the differences below. > > --attr-timeout=SECONDS (glusterfs start up option) > --entry-timeout=SECONDS (glusterfs start up option) > option transport-timeout 30 (protocol-client option) > > What I realize is to get a quick error response from servers when > clients cannot access to a file on them. > > > _______________________________________________ > Gluster-devel mailing list > Gluster-devel@xxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-devel > -- It always takes longer than you expect, even when you take into account Hofstadter's Law. -- Hofstadter's Law
