Hi, I am a new GlusterFS user. I set up a replicated folder on two computers. When both are running, I can see that the folder on both computers are synchronized with each other as I write files to it. However, when I shutdown one: 1) File operations, like "ls" command, take time to finish on the running computer at first. But after this the dely disappears. 2) I continue to update some existing files on the running computer. Then I bring back the other one. For small files, the changes are reflected on the restarted computers very quickly. But for big files, it gets very slow to get the changes replicated. If I also happen to update the same file on the always running computer, both commands on the big file get stuck for a long time. Both will be a problem if I use such a system as a backend to build some high-volme services because there are always many requests for a same file at same time. Could somebody help me here? Is it possible that I have some wrong configurations? They are generated with "glusterfs-volgen -name repstore1 --raid 1 jaunty2:/export/sdb1 jaunty3:/export/sdb1". I use GlusterFS version 2.0.8. Thanks, - Yan
