Hi, I am having some strange problem with glusterfs , to explain it below is what the setup looks like: 2 machines( A1, A2) running glusterfsd (server) A1 = 192.168.1.4 A2 = 192.168.1.5 1 machine(B) running glusterfs (client) on which glusterfs file system is mounted (/mnt/glusterfs) B = 192.168.1.3 Data on glusterfs servers stored in /data/export directory. Following are the server and client volume files Server Volume file ---------------------------- volume posix type storage/posix option directory /data/export end-volume volume locks type features/locks subvolumes posix end-volume volume brick type performance/io-threads option thread-count 8 subvolumes locks end-volume volume server type protocol/server option transport-type tcp option auth.addr.brick.allow 192.168.1.* subvolumes brick end-volume Client Volume File --------------------------- ### Add client feature and attach to remote subvolume of server1 volume brick1 type protocol/client option transport-type tcp/client option remote-host 192.168.1.4 # IP address of the remote brick option remote-subvolume brick # name of the remote volume end-volume ### Add client feature and attach to remote subvolume of server2 volume brick2 type protocol/client option transport-type tcp/client option remote-host 192.168.1.5 # IP address of the remote brick option remote-subvolume brick # name of the remote volume end-volume #The replicated volume with data volume afr1 type cluster/replicate subvolumes brick1 brick2 end-volume The issue is when I delete a file from /data/export from machine A1 it gets deleted from /mnt/glusterfs on Machine B but remains on machine A2. If I specify A2's IP first in client volume file then deleting a file from /data/export on A2 deletes file from /mnt/glusterfs on Machine B but not from Machine A1. Is this behavior correct ? What could be the issue in this case ? Thank you in advance. -Paras
