Re: Why is it not possible to mount a replicated gluster volume with one Gluster server?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



this all makes sense and sounds a bit like a solr setup :-)

I have now added the third node as a peer 
sudo gluster peer probe gs3

That indeed allow me to mount the share manually on node2 even if node1 is down. 

BUT: It does not mount on reboot! It only successfully mounts if node1 is up. I need to do a manual: sudo mount -a

Is there a particular reason for this, or is it a misconfiguration?

This is exactly what I gave as an example in the thread (please read
again). GlusterD is not supposed to start brick process if its other
counter part hasn't come up yet in a 2 node setup. The reason it has
been designed in this way is to block GlusterD on operating on a volume
which could be stale as the node was down and cluster was operational
earlier.

For two node deployments, a third dummy node is recommended to ensure that quorum is maintained when one of the nodes is down.

Have the settings changed to enable server quorum by default?
