Hello I have a problem with glusterfs in my configuration (4 servers): n6c1:/var/log/glusterfs# gluster volume set todo-list auth.allow 10.0.1.14 Set volume successful n6c1:/var/log/glusterfs# gluster volume info todo-list n6c1:/var/log/glusterfs# gluster volume info todo-list n6c1:/var/log/glusterfs# echo $? 0 n6c1:/var/log/glusterfs# gluster volume info todo-list n6c1:/var/log/glusterfs# gluster volume info todo-list Volume Name: todo-list Type: Distributed-Replicate Status: Started Number of Bricks: 2 x 2 = 4 Transport-type: tcp Bricks: Brick1: n6c1:/srv/glusterfs/todo-list Brick2: n7c1:/srv/glusterfs/todo-list Brick3: n4c1:/srv/glusterfs/todo-list Brick4: n5c1:/srv/glusterfs/todo-list Options Reconfigured: auth.allow: 10.0.1.14 When I start/stop volume or change authentication I can not get volume info immediately. As you can see I have to wait a while (about 10 seconds) for volume info. Why It lasts so long and how to avoid this issue? My servers are configured automatically and it is not very convenient for me to sleep between those commands. regards M. Galkiewicz
