So I have this setup: 2 servers connected via a VPN (slow connection) since they are physically distant. Using the CLI I created a replicated volume with one brick on each server. The problem starts when the access to the mounted volume is slow, "# time ls /mount_point" is giving me around 0.5seconds But if I cut the VPN connection the time goes down to around 0.005sec. So I am assuming gluster is distributing the reads, being created with the CLI I tried to edit the configurations manually and added "option read-subvolume volume_name" to the cluster/replicate volume, being the read-subvolume the local one. But gluster still refuses to use only the local server. Is there a way to force it? What I need is just gluster to keep the directory mirrored, but the reads for performance reasons should be done only locally and not using the remote server.
