The migration to NFS-Ganesha started with 3.8.0 and there has been discussion about it on the Gluster community mailing lists over the past two years. gluster nfs (or gnfs) only supports NFSv3. The gnfs part doesn't have High Availability (HA) out of the box. The design of gnfs doesn't lend itself to adding NFSv4 and beyond. NFS-Ganesha has NFSv3, NFSv4, NFSv4.1, NFSv4.2, pNFS — and if you care about it, 9P support. It's a better implementation, and it's being actively developed and maintained. Besides kernel NFS (knfs) it doesn't make sense to pay for maintaining two very different NFS implementations. (IOW Red Hat isn't going to pay to maintain and develop two different implementations. Someone else may step up and maintain gnfs.) You can keep using gnfs, but eventually you should switch to NFS-Ganesha because that's where resources are devoted — for fixing bugs and adding features. You *should* switch, but nobody is going to force you to switch. The gnfs part will always be there and you'll always be able to use it. -- Kaleb _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users@xxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
