The data has to at some point been put into the gluster filesytem by gluster. > >I'm just not seeing activity or replication. Do I need to kick >something to get this to work? I test my replication as follows: echo `hostname` `date` >> /path/to/gluster/mount/glustercheck then run that from the other server tail /path/to/gluster/mount/glustercheck to make sure they are the same on both machines.
