Hi all, I got the solution to the problem and am a bit confused. The working config can be found at http://gluster.pastebin.org/19526 I'm now using srv9 only as namespace, not as storage any more. I used one of the bricks (srv9) as storage brick *and* as namespace brick before. After having created a file from a client, I noticed that the file was on one of the storage nodes and in the *storage* directory of the namespace node (srv9) with zero bytes (and not in the namespace directory). I seems that it is not possible any more to define / use more than one volume per server or rather it works not as expected.
