However there seems to no concrete explanation about this file in the above readthedocs site.I guess editing vol file is an old method to configure GlusterFS. Is my understanding correct? Otherwise would someone kindly tell me the location of the document which showing how to use the vol file?glusterd.vol is a config file which glusterd uses during it's own initialization. The parameters used in this file are somewhat global to GlusterD's context and has nothing to do with any volume specific options. For a particular volume tunable you are advised to use volume set interface through CLI.
This is how the glusterd.vol file looks like
volume management
type mgmt/glusterd
option working-directory @GLUSTERD_WORKDIR@/* defines where glusterd's data will be stored
option transport-type socket,rdma/* transport type options
option transport.socket.keepalive-time 10
option transport.socket.keepalive-interval 2
option transport.socket.read-fail-log off
option ping-timeout 0/* ping-timeout set to 0 indicates there is no ping-timer logic
option event-threads 1/* single threaded e-poll
# option transport.address-family inet6
# option base-port 49152
end-volume
Thank you so much for your prompt reply, Atin! I understand the difference between the two and I would like to configure the volume through CLI as you mentioned.
When I need to edit other options in vol file than those you have shown, I would like to research by myself or ask here because there seems to be no detailed documentation about vol file.
Thanks,
Masao
Any input would be greatly appreciated!Thanks,Masao
