Stats, I think there was nothing changed between rc2 and rc4 that could affect this functionality. Your vol files look fine, i will look into why it is not working. Do not use single process as both server and client as we saw issues related to locking. Can you see if using different processes for server and client works fine w.r.t replication? Also subvolumes list of all AFRs should be in same order (in your case its interchanged) Regards Krishna On Mon, Mar 9, 2009 at 5:44 PM, Stas Oskin <stas.oskin at gmail.com> wrote: > Actually, I see a new version came out, rc4. > Any idea if anything related was fixed? > Regards. > 2009/3/9 Stas Oskin <stas.oskin at gmail.com> >> >> Hi. >>> >>> Was it working for your previously?
