Hi,
Just to let you know, I did find the email responses to my
queries some months ago helpful and I now have a pNFS server
for FreeBSD using the GlusterFS port at the alpha test stage.
So far I have not made any changes to GlusterFS except the little
poll() patch that was already discussed on this list last December.
Anyhow, if anyone is interested in taking a look at this,
I have a primitive document at:
http://people.freebsd.org/~rmacklem/pnfs-setup.txt
that will hopefully give you a starting point.
Thanks to everyone that helped via email a few months ago, rick
Hi Rick,
Awesome some work man. You have cracked Flexfile layout for gluster
volume.
I still wondering why you picked knfs instead of nfs-ganesha? There
will lot of context switches
between kernel space and user space which may effect the metadata
performance.
I still remembering the discussion[1] in which I mentioned to use
ganesha server as MDS.
And usually gluster volume won't export using knfs.

There's also potential memory deadlocks which is why we stopped doing
that in the first place.
