?Looks like having the port be configurable through the gluster command would be a very good feature enhancement <hint, hint> :-) James Burnash, Unix Engineering -----Original Message----- From: gluster-users-bounces at gluster.org [mailto:gluster-users-bounces at gluster.org] On Behalf Of Amar Tumballi Sent: Thursday, February 24, 2011 11:16 PM To: hartmut at hartmut-woehrle.ch Cc: gluster-users at gluster.org Subject: Re: Changing the port of the bricks?

Hence every time you restart the volume, the same port gets assigned to it. One of the option is to delete the volume and create it with the same command (which was used earlier). > When looking for pmap_registry_bind I found the glusterd-pmap.c, with > a call to > line 81: pmap->base_port = GF_DEFAULT_BASE_PORT + 2; > > So is there a possibility to redefine this GF_DEFAULT_BASE_PORT? > > Yes, you can change this in code, and re-compile to get it working. libglusterfs/src/globals.h:23:#define GF_DEFAULT_BASE_PORT 24007 Regards, Amar DISCLAIMER: This e-mail, and any attachments thereto, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.
