Sorry, I did not start the glusterfsd on the node I was shutting yesterday and now killed another one during FUSE test, so it had to crash immediately (only one of three nodes were actually up). This definitely happened for the first time (only one node had been killed yesterday). Using FUSE seems to be OK with replica 3. So this can be gfapi related or maybe rather libvirt related. I tried ioengine=gfapi with fio and job survived reboot. -ps On Sat, Sep 9, 2017 at 8:05 AM, Pavel Szalbot <pavel.szalbot@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi, > > On Sat, Sep 9, 2017 at 2:35 AM, WK <wkmail@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> Pavel. >> >> Is there a difference between native client (fuse) and libgfapi in regards >> to the crashing/read-only behaviour? > > I switched to FUSE now and the VM crashed (read-only remount) > immediately after one node started rebooting. > > I tried to mount.glusterfs same volume on different server (not VM), > running Ubuntu Xenial and gluster client 3.10.5. > > mount -t glusterfs -o backupvolfile-server=10.0.1.202 > 10.0.1.201:/gv_openstack_1 /mnt/gv_openstack_1/ > > I ran fio job I described earlier.
