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. Keith Hi, Nothing. I tried the move /a/foo to /a/tmp. I then tar'd it back. Nothing on the other side. The two machines say that they have a working handshake and they are connected. Is there something better than just --debug? Should I truss the process? Thank you, P.
