Re: Can't write to volume using vim/nano

Hi Jim. Thanks for taking the time.

Sorry I didn't express myself properly. It's not a simple matter of 
permissions. Users can write to the volume alright. It's when vim and nano 
are used, or when small file writes are performed (by cat or echo), that 
it doesn't work. The file is updated with the write in the server, but it 
shows up as empty in the client.

I guess it has something to do with the size of the write, because I ran a 
test writing to a file one byte at a time, and it never showed up as 
having any content in the client (although in the server it kept growing 
accordingly).

I should point out that I'm using a sharded volume. But when I was testing 
a striped volume, it also happened. Output of "gluster volume info" 
follows bellow:
