OK, I tried on one of the servers to mount onto itself. It gives me a "Transport endpoint is not connected" message when I try to run "df". [root at storage0 ~]# mount -t glusterfs -o transport=rdma storage0:/RaidData /mnt/RaidData [root at storage0 ~]# mount /dev/md1 on / type ext3 (rw) [...] glusterfs#storage0:/RaidData on /mnt/RaidData type fuse (rw,allow_other,default_permissions,max_read=131072) [root at storage0 ~]# df Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/md1 149308588 5671116 135930696 5% / /dev/md0 101018 18010 77792 19% /boot tmpfs 12338356 0 12338356 0% /dev/shm /dev/md3 2930204288 5536 2930198752 1% /data df: `/mnt/RaidData': Transport endpoint is not connected The same thing happens if I do the same commands on storage1. If I do service iptables status, it tells me # service iptables status Firewall is stopped. The "Transport" message sounds like the Infiniband might not be configured the way GlusterFS expects. Do I need to turn on the IPoIB and mount via the IB address instead? .. Lana (lana.deere at gmail.com) On Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 4:00 PM, Craig Carl <craig at gluster.com> wrote: > Lana - > ??
