Hi All ~ I created an eight-brick gluster 3.3.1 volume (2x replication) on eight CentOS 6.3 x64 systems. I was able to form and start the volume without issue. I was also able to mount it through /etc/fstab as a native glusterfs mount. I have a couple questions issues at this point: - On a client machine, "glusterfs" is not recognized as a valid type unless gluster-server is installed. This seems to contradict the documentation - wanted to make sure I'm not doing something wrong. More a clarification than issue here. - The glusterfs process is taking between 50% and 80% CPU on both the brick and client systems (these are fairly powerful new servers). - No doubt linked to the above, the mounted filesystem hangs indefinitely when accessed. I tried an "ls -a" on the mounted filesystem, for example, which hangs forever. I tested this by mounting a brick system to itself and to a client which is not a brick and the same behavior was observed. Both were glusterfs mounts. There is nothing special about my deployment except for the use of transport = tcp,rdma. I am running on Ethernet now but will be migrating to Infiniband after this is debugged. Thanks for any advice, ~Mike C. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
