I apologize if this has already been covered, but I couldn't find anything close enough to this scenario in searching the archives. I'm evaluating a 4 node cluster, with nodes 1 and 2 replicating, nodes 3 and 4 replicating and pair 1 (nodes 1 and 2) and pair 2 (nodes 3 and 4) set to "distribution". However, when I copy data to any node on the /gluster mount point from a 5th machine using scp, all of the data shows up in the exported share on nodes 1 and 2 only. The data does not get replicated to nodes 3 and 4, even when directly connected to those servers. Am I missing something or ... Here's some configuration details: cat /proc/mounts: glusterfs#/etc/glusterfs/client.vol /gluster fuse rw,user_id=0,group_id=0,default_permissions,allow_other,max_read=131072 0 0 auto mounting the glusterfs in /etc/rc.local: glusterfs -f /etc/glusterfs/client.vol /gluster --- server.vol --- # Gluster directory on raid volume /dev/md0 volume posix type storage/posix option directory /mnt/raid/gluster/export end-volume volume locks type features/locks subvolumes posix end-volume volume brick type performance/io-threads option thread-count 4 subvolumes locks end-volume ### Add network serving capability to above brick volume server type protocol/server option transport-type ib-verbs option auth.addr.brick.allow * subvolumes brick end-volume --- end of server.vol --- --- client.vol --- volume cf01 type protocol/client option transport-type ib-verbs option remote-host 10.185.17.11 option remote-subvolume brick end-volume volume cf02 type protocol/client option transport-type ib-verbs option remote-host 10.185.17.12 option remote-subvolume brick end-volume volume cf03 type protocol/client option transport-type ib-verbs option remote-host 10.185.17.13 option remote-subvolume brick end-volume volume cf04 type protocol/client option transport-type ib-verbs option remote-host 10.185.17.14 option remote-subvolume brick end-volume # Replicate data across each servers in 2 pairs volume pair01 type cluster/replicate subvolumes cf01 cf02 end-volume volume pair02 type cluster/replicate subvolumes cf03 cf04 end-volume # Distribute data across all pairs volume bricks type cluster/distribute subvolumes pair01 pair02 end-volume # For performance volume writebehind type performance/write-behind option cache-size 4MB subvolumes bricks end-volume --- end of client.vol ---
