IIRC this maining list filters out attachments, so here it is (EOLs are munged up, fix accordingly) : --- glusterfs-1.3.8.orig/glusterfs-fuse/utils/mount.glusterfs.in 2008-01-08 12:49:35.000000000 +0100 +++ glusterfs-1.3.8/glusterfs-fuse/utils/mount.glusterfs.in 2008-01-08 13:44:30.000000000 +0100 @@ -121,6 +121,12 @@ main () # $2=$(echo "$@" | sed -n 's/[^ ]* \([^ ]*\).*/\1/p'); mount_point="$2"; + + # Simple check to avoid multiple identical mounts + if grep -q "glusterfs $mount_point fuse" /etc/mtab; then + echo "$0: according to mtab, a glusterfs is already mounted on $mount_point" + exit 1 + fi fs_options=$(echo "$fs_options,$new_fs_options"); This is probably not portable at all (tested only on Fedora/RHEL), and I'm sure there must be a much more elegant way to fix the problem ;-) Matthias -- Clean custom Red Hat Linux rpm packages : http://freshrpms.net/ Fedora release 8 (Werewolf) - Linux kernel 2.6.23.9-85.fc8 Load : 0.33 0.47 0.55
