Hi - new to gluster, having an unexpected issue with NFS mounts via the automounter. I've noticed two things - I'm used to the automounter unmounting inactive mounts after a while - the gluster NFS mounts seem to hang around indefinitely - "amq -m" showws the gluster hosts as down, and non-gluster hosts up For a short time after a gluster FS is NFS mounted, "amq -m" shows the host as starting, and then it changes to showing as down: myclient# amq -m "root" root 1 localhost is up /etc/amd.map /host toplvl 1 localhost is up /etc/amd.map /net toplvl 1 localhost is up hpb:/net/hpb /.amd_mnt/hpb/host host 1 hpb.mydomain.com is down hpa:/net/hpa /.amd_mnt/hpa/host host 1 hpa.mydomain.com is starting myclient# amq -m "root" root 1 localhost is up /etc/amd.map /host toplvl 1 localhost is up /etc/amd.map /net toplvl 1 localhost is up hpb:/net/hpb /.amd_mnt/hpb/host host 1 hpb.mydomain.com is down hpa:/net/hpa /.amd_mnt/hpa/host host 1 hpa.mydomain.com is down I had a quick look in the amq source but I couldn't get a good idea of what "down" actually means in this case - files are still serving, the machines are up. NFS file access seems to work as expected, but when I reboot a gluster server, the transition doesn't seem as smooth as I would have hoped and I wonder if it's related to the amd automounter not being happy. I have a very simple gluster setup - two servers (centos 6.5 with glusterfs-3.4.3-2.el6.x86_64 packages), ctdb managing two shared IPs (the hpa and hpb in the mounts show above). Gluster configuration is the defaults with 3, 2 replica volumes defined. Client side is FreeBSD 8.2 with stock automounter config (NFS version 3, tcp). rpcbind is running everywhere, dns forward and reverse, the network is reliable (not busy), I don't see anything in /var/log/glusterfs/* or the system logs that looks suspicious to me. I've tried google-ing and document-ing looking for clues, but I've come up with nothing. I would be grateful for any insight or suggestions anyone could provide. Thanks!
