I use monit [ttp://mmonit.com/monit/] extensively, and have written a simple config snippet to watch glusterfds and restart it if it has failed. from /etc/monit/monitrc check process glusterfsd with pidfile /var/run/glusterfsd.pid start program = "/etc/init.d/glusterfsd start" stop program = "/etc/init.d/glusterfsd stop" if failed host 127.0.0.1 port 6996 then restart if loadavg(5min) greater than 10 for 8 cycles then restart if 5 restarts within 5 cycles then timeout Today I was looking for a more 'gluster native' way of checking all the nodes to see if each of them in the cluster are up, but haven't gotten very far, save for pulling the hostnames out of the volfile: grep "option remote-host" /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs.vol | uniq | cut -d" " -f7 but from there you'd need to do a shared ssh key setup for a script to loop through those entries and check things in the logs on all the servers... Does anyone have a way they do it?
