Hi, Why do we mention the _netdev option while automatically mounting the glusterFS volume on the client. ?? I don't know if this has any connection with the below described problem: Files get randomly distributed on a simple replica volume. ? But after umounting the volume and re-mounting it using the _netdev option, it seems to work and replication works. I cannot confirm whether this is the problem. Please advise. !!!
