Hi All, Any idea as to why the below issue happens. ? Mounting the volume on Client1 : mount -t glusterfs -o backupvolfile-server=GFS02 GFS01:/testvol /data Mounting the volume on Client2 : mount -t glusterfs -o backupvolfile-server=GFS01 GFS02:/testvol /data the gluster volume status on both the gluster servers are as follows : Volume Name: testvol Type: Replicate Volume ID: db249daf-174c-493d-b976-58bf9a862d2f Status: Started Number of Bricks: 1 x 2 = 2 Transport-type: tcp Bricks: Brick1: GFS01/B01 Brick2: GFS02/B01 Thanks & Regards, Bobby Jacob -----Original Message----- From: gluster-users-bounces at gluster.org [mailto:gluster-users-bounces at gluster.org] On Behalf Of Bobby Jacob Sent: Wednesday, September 18, 2013 8:48 AM To: mueller at tropenklinik.de; gluster-users at gluster.org Subject: Re: Mounting same replica-volume on multiple clients. ???? Exactly. !! BUT I am writing through the volume mount-point from the clients. !! NOT directly into the bricks. !! I'm using GlusterFS 3.3.2 with Centos6.4 . !

Hello, this ist he behavior as if you write directly into the glusterd directory/partition and not to the remounted replicating bricks!?

September 2013 07:36 An: gluster-users at gluster.org Betreff: Mounting same replica-volume on multiple clients. ???? HI, I have 2 gluster nodes (GFS01/GFS02) each with a single brick (B01/B01). I have created a simple replica volume with these bricks. Bricks ?? : GFS01/B01 and GFS02/B01. Volume: TestVol I have 2 clients (C01/C02) which will mount this "testvol" for simultaneous read/write. The 2 clients run the same application which is load-balanced, so user request are end to both the client servers which reads/writes data to both the same volume. Mounting the volume on C1?????? :?????????????? mount -t glusterfs -o backupvolfile-server=GFS02 GFS01:/testvol /data Mounting the volume on C2?????? :?????????????? mount -t glusterfs -o backupvolfile-server=GFS01 GFS02:/testvol /data Is this the appropriate way to be followed.? At times, I notice that when I write data through C1-mount point the data is written only to GFS01/B01 and if data is written through C2-mount point the data is written only to GFS02/B01. Please advise. !!
