The problem I ran into with MPIO and gluster was it did not recognize two replicated subvolumes as belonging to the same volume. If I recall the target id (WWID) of each subvol needs to be the same for the "grouping" to work. I was able to workaround this with a hack, but it did not work out of the box. ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Alex Crow" <acrow@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > To: gluster-users@xxxxxxxxxxx > Sent: Monday, September 29, 2014 10:24:57 AM > Subject: Re: bonding question > > Yes, but even with rr it's still one tcp connection.
