I have the client running on the headnode, and it has the glusterfs mounted on /export/gluster. Then, I'm trying to export it from there, and trying to mount it from my own workstation. On each of the, um, 30 or so nodes, I've got (leaving out the commented lines) volume posix type storage/posix option directory /glusterfs1 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 * option listen-port 6996 subvolumes brick end-volume Then, on the head node, I've got (replacing actual names with <clusternode>): volume raidvol-0 type protocol/client option transport-type tcp option remote-host raidvol-0 option remote-port 6996 option remote-subvolume brick end-volume volume raidvol-1 type protocol/client option transport-type tcp option remote-host raidvol-1 option remote-port 6996 option remote-subvolume brick end-volume volume <clusternode>002:/glusterfs1 type protocol/client option transport-type tcp option remote-host <clusternode>002 option remote-port 6996 option remote-subvolume brick end-volume volume <clusternode>003:/glusterfs1 type protocol/client option transport-type tcp option remote-host <clusternode>003 option remote-port 6996 option remote-subvolume brick end-volume <...> volume <clusternode>034:/glusterfs1 type protocol/client option transport-type tcp option remote-host <clusternode>034 option remote-port 6996 option remote-subvolume brick end-volume volume mirror-0 type cluster/replicate subvolumes raidvol-0 raidvol-1 end-volume volume mirror-1 type cluster/replicate subvolumes <clusternode>002:/glusterfs1 <clusternode>003:/glusterfs1 end-volume volume mirror-2 type cluster/replicate subvolumes <clusternode>004:/glusterfs1 <clusternode>005:/glusterfs1 end-volume <...> volume mirror-15 type cluster/replicate subvolumes <clusternode>033:/glusterfs1 <clusternode>034:/glusterfs1 end-volume volume distribute type cluster/distribute subvolumes mirror-0 mirror-1 mirror-2 mirror-3 mirror-4 mirror-5 mirror-6 mirror-7 mirror-8 mirror-9 mirror-10 mirror-11 mirror-12 mirror-13 mirror-14 mirror-15 end-volume volume writebehind type performance/write-behind option cache-size 4MB subvolumes distribute end-volume volume io-cache type performance/io-cache option cache-size 1GB subvolumes writebehind end-volume mark
