I have created a distributed volume on server 1 , and I am trying to mount the soft link contained in the volume as NFS from server 2 . but it is failing with the error " mount.nfs: an incorrect mount option was specified" Below is the volume in the server 1 that I am trying to export server 1 sh# gluster volume info all Volume Name: _testvol Type: Distribute Volume ID: f36d4ec4-8462-44aa-a0e6-e86c8bd3c914 Status: Started Number of Bricks: 2 Transport-type: tcp Bricks: Brick1: 10.137.108.163:/mnt/gluster Brick2: 10.137.108.163:/root/test_fs Below is the content of the of the exported volume on the server 1 server 1 sh# ls -l total 4 lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 6 Oct 14 13:54 fakeroot -> rootfs drwxr-xr-x. 20 root root 4096 Oct 10 20:07 rootfs >From server 2 , I am trying to mount the soft link fakeroot, and it is failing server 2 sh# mount -o mountproto=tcp -t nfs 10.137.108.163:/_testvol/fakeroot /root/nfs_test mount.nfs: an incorrect mount option was specified When I mount the directory contained in the volume from server 2 , it is successfully getting mounted server 2 sh# mount -o mountproto=tcp -t nfs 10.137.108.163:/_testvol/rootfs /root/nfs_test/ server 2 sh# Could you please let me know if it is an expected behaviour that glusterFS NFS exports cannot be mounted if the mount path is a soft link Regards Rahul Shrivastava =====-----=====-----===== Notice: The information contained in this e-mail message and/or attachments to it may contain confidential or privileged information.
