What is the expected behaviour of gluster client when servers disappear (due to a short network outage) and re-appear? For example, say there are servers A and B, and client C. A goes away (e.g. pull the network cable). Timeout occurs, client continues using B. A returns without glusterfsd being restarted or the client glusterfs being restarted. Does the client periodically re-scan for presence of servers that dropped out? Or does the client have to be restarted to notice that a server has returned?
As witnessed during my last round of testing some time ago under 2.0.0rc1 (yes, i know), client C will _not_ notice that server A has returned.
This behaviour may have changed since, however... -- dan.
