I just installed distributed gluster FS on 2 CentOS 5 boxes. install and configuration seemed to go fine. gluterd is running. firewalls/ iptables are off. however for the life of me i cannot nfs mount the main gluster server from either a OSX or a CentOS 5 box. I use NFS often and have a fair amount of experience with it so i've reviewed most of the common pitfalls. here's the command that fails from centos: $ sudo mount -v -t nfs 172.16.1.76:/gs-test /mnt/gluster/ mount: trying 172.16.1.76 prog 100003 vers 3 prot tcp port 2049 mount: trying 172.16.1.76 prog 100005 vers 3 prot udp port 909 mount: 172.16.1.76:/gs-test failed, reason given by server: No such file or directory and the same one from OSX 10.5 sudo mount -v -t nfs 172.16.1.76:/gs-test /gluster/ mount_nfs: can't access /gs-test: No such file or directory what's weird is that i can mount actual dirs on the gluster server, just not the gluster VOLNMAE. in other words, this command works fine because it's mounting an actual dir. $sudo mount -v -t nfs 172.16.1.76:/ /mnt/gluster/ help? thanks, -matt ------- Matt Hodson Scientific Customer Support, Geospiza (206) 633-4403, Ext. 111 http://www.geospiza.com
