The allocation is attempted to be sequential, it depends on the availability of ports. If the 1st brick has port 49152, 2nd will have 49153 as long as the port 49153 is FREE i.e. not being used by anything else. > Is their any such scenario where port number would not be sequential ? Yes, there are scenarios where port numbers need not be sequential. Port numbers are allocated by pmap_registry_alloc (). Following is a snippet : . . . for (p = pmap->last_alloc; p < 65535; p++) { if (pmap->ports[p].type != GF_PMAP_PORT_FREE) continue; if (pmap_port_isfree (p)) { pmap->ports[p].type = GF_PMAP_PORT_LEASED; port = p; break; } } if (port) pmap->last_alloc = port; . . . pmap->last_alloc denotes the last allocated port here. From the last allocated port, till port 65535, it is incrementally checked if a port is free. If free, it is allocated. > > Is their a way to give a range of ports for bricks? > > Thanks, > Bipin Kunal > > > _______________________________________________ > Gluster-devel mailing list > Gluster-devel@xxxxxxxxxxx > http://www.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-devel > -- Thanks, Anuradha. _______________________________________________ Gluster-devel mailing list Gluster-devel@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-devel
