Hi Satheesaran,
Coming back to your problem, do you run VMs in the same machine, where gluster is installed ?
Yes.
Could you elaborate on your setup ?, and that could help me to understand the problem.
Here my setup for evaluation, I delete the volume settings, caus I play to much around with. My opinion is, to keep it simple, but've the possibility to avoid crash on one single host. <setup> In my setup, the servers are the clients too. I hope you could understand my description: I remount the share back to the single machines two machines: gf001 and gf002 Both: debian 8 glusterfs 3.7 /dev/sda - root /dev/sdb - /export/vbstore My volume info: root@gf001 :~# gluster volume info vbstore Volume Name: vbstore Type: Replicate Volume ID: 7bf8aa42-8fd9-4535-888d-dacea4f14a83 Status: Started Number of Bricks: 1 x 2 = 2 Transport-type: tcp Bricks: Brick1: gf001.mvz.ffm:/export/vbstore Brick2: gf002.mvz.ffm:/export/vbstore mounting on gf001: mount -t glusterfs gf001:/vbstore /import/vbstore or via fstab: gf001:/vbstore /import/vbstore glusterfs _netdev,defaults 0 0 The same on gf002 with gf002 as server. Creating an virtualbox VM in /import/vbstore. Starting VM on gf001 OR gf002 work right. I could althoug teleporting an VBox VM from one to another host. </setup> When I understand it right, is: Going down one of the gluster nodes in a replica 2 setup will set filesystem rewrite on clientsite when the node come back to work. I've no problem to take a third node to avoid the readonly problem, or seperate the Virtualisation Host and Gluster host. But what settings I've to do on the gluster volume?
