Currently, you've already implemented my the proposed solution. It was done at the function gd_peerinfo_find_from_addrinfo, file xlators/mgmt/glusterd/src/glusterd-peer-utils.c.Hi Atin,You are right!!! I was using the version 3.5 in production. And when I've checked the Gluster source code, I checked the wrong commit (not the latest commit in the master branch).Thanks for your tip! And sorry for any inconvenience.
