Hi james ! 1) Yes, right now, we run as root. Thanks for noticing :) ... We are working on modifying this in the very near future. The problem is that the plugin attempts to mount a filesystem, but we recently have discussed that auto mount behaviour may be a superfluous feature, since mounting can easily be automated for nodes in a cluster. 2) You're right the pervious version of the gluster hadoop filesystem implementation did not deal correctly with privileges. This is now fixed, however. You can get a "bleeding edge" jar which fixes your permissions error from the glusterfs-hadoop github repository: https://github.com/gluster/hadoop-glusterfs, where these fixes have been merged into head. Also we can get you this jar prebuilt if you want, just let me know... Thanks for trying out the GlusterFileSystem and keep the feedback coming .......! -- Jay Vyas http://jayunit100.blogspot.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
