(For my speed test results see the end of this mail) I saw what was wrong: When I # gluster peer probe ... from one node to the other, then glusterfs automatically allows it's own IP from *the same subnet*. If I probe both server from a client and then it works: # gluster peer probe 192.168.20.14 Probe successful # gluster peer probe 192.168.29.15 Probe successful # gluster volume create test replica 2 transport tcp 192.168.20.14:/mnt/ 192.168.29.15:/mnt/ Creation of volume test has been successful. ... Netstat also shows that the client is connected to both nodes with each on a own IP in a separare subnet (and NIC): # netstat -taunp | grep glusterfs tcp 0 0 192.168.29.1:1022 192.168.29.15:24011 VERBUNDEN 23488/glusterfs tcp 0 0 192.168.20.1:1019 192.168.20.14:24011 VERBUNDEN 23310/glusterfs ....
