Option transport.socket.bind-address fixes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

glusterd has option transport.socket.bind-address that enables binding gluster to an exact IP address. This feature is necessary for HA cluster deployment. In the initial setup everything seemed fine, but after a little bit of testing I found several issues.

Here are the issues I found:
- NFS and selfheal daemons are started by glusterd but with volserver hard-coded to "localhost" (xlators/mgmt/glusterd/src/glusterd-utils.c). Since the glusterd is tied to a different address these two daemons fail to start. - rebalance and quota sections in glusterd also invoke glusterfs with volserver hard-coded to "localhost" (xlators/mgmt/glusterd/src/glusterd-quota.c and glusterd-rebalance.c) - bind-address is not propagated to the NFS volume file or other NFS daemons so all of them are listening on 0.0.0.0.

I provided a patch that solves these issues for version 3.4.1 using the SRPM from here:

http://download.gluster.org/pub/gluster/glusterfs/3.4/LATEST/EPEL.repo/epel-6/SRPMS/glusterfs-3.4.1-3.el6.src.rpm
Unfortunately I didn't use trunk because I need the patched version deployed as soon as possible. I've been running the patched version on my test environment and it seems fine. Still I would be very grateful if someone can check if patches are any good.

Patch can be found here:
 http://kosjenka.srce.hr/~eimamagi/glusterfs-3.4.1.add.bind-address.patch
and SRPM with patch included here:

ftp://ftp.srce.hr/srce-redhat/base/el5/SRPMS/glusterfs-3.4.1-4.el5.srce.src.rpm

I hope this is something useful that can be included in future releases.

Best regards
