Hi All,
We have a distributed gluster filesystem across 2 servers. We recently realized that one of the servers (mseas-data3) has 2 hostnames for the other server (mseas-data2). One of these is on an external port that we rarely use. When that port went down following a power outage, we ended up in a weird state where the gluster filesystem was being served to the rest of the cluster but (a) mseas-data3 kept indicating that mseas-data2 was disconnected in response to "gluster peer status" and (b) we kept having to restart the glusterd daemon on mseas-data3. Since we don't use the external port much and didn't think gluster used it at all it was a while before we diagnosed the problem.
Now we would like to expunge that external hostname by making the
following changes
Current setting on MSEAS-DATA3
/var/lib/glusterd/peers/c1110fd9-cb99-4ca1-b18a-536a122d67ef
uuid=c1110fd9-cb99-4ca1-b18a-536a122d67ef
state=3
hostname1=MSEAS-DATA2.MIT.EDU
hostname2=mseas-data2
Proposed change on MSEAS-DATA3
/var/lib/glusterd/peers/c1110fd9-cb99-4ca1-b18a-536a122d67efuuid=c1110fd9-cb99-4ca1-b18a-536a122d67ef
state=3
#hostname1=MSEAS-DATA2.MIT.EDU
hostname1=mseas-data2
(manually changing a configuration file). Is this the correct approach? Do we need to make this change in additional files as well? Do we need to bring down the volume and daemons first?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Pat
