Not sure I understand why, but a customer noted this: mount -t glusterfs dv4-1:/sicluster/sub1 /local doesn't work, but mount -t nfs dv4-1:/sicluster/sub1 /local does. Definitely curious. Not sure if I should open a bug or an RFE. Anyone else need this? FWIW: said customer went back to native client from NFS after dealing with some bugs that were problematic (files disappearing, being inaccessible, unwritable, etc). This is the 3.1.2 stack. -- Joseph Landman, Ph.D Founder and CEO Scalable Informatics Inc. email: landman at scalableinformatics.com web : http://scalableinformatics.com http://scalableinformatics.com/sicluster phone: +1 734 786 8423 x121 fax : +1 866 888 3112 cell : +1 734 612 4615
