Thanks for your contribution, Jack. Someone will get back to you soon on this. I must congratulate you on scaling to 200 servers. It's mostly the HPC users who scale to those many servers.
Regards,
Tejas.

Subject: [PATCH: glusterfs] Solving the problem of insufficient ports in gluster clients
Hi,
When we used GlusterFS 2.0.7 with nearly 200 servers and 6
volumes, the client was unable to connect to more than 4 volumes at
the same time. We found that there were no enough ports (200*4=800)
available under port 1024 while client ports must be under 1024. Even
worse, GlusterFS will occupy ports of other programs such as Rsync
port 873. Therefore, we modified code in name.c and used function
setsockopt with SO_REUSEADDR to solve the problem. Below is the patch
by my colleague. It works well now.
