Re: gluster daemons missing in debian buster 10.5 after glusterfs 7.8-1 installed?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Well, i understand that there is a change and acted afterwards accordingly - enabled them manually.
But why i do not see same daemons?
was there a crucial change between 7.7-1 and 7.8-1?

on a server, which was updated from stretch to buster:
# dpkg -l|grep gluster
ii  glusterfs-client                   7.7-1                               amd64        clustered file-system (client package)
ii  glusterfs-common                   7.7-1                               amd64        GlusterFS common libraries and translator modules
ii  glusterfs-server                   7.7-1                               amd64        clustered file-system (server package)

# systemctl --all|grep gluster
  srv-gluster-xftpservices.mount                                                                                 loaded    active   mounted   /srv/gluster/xftpservices
  var-log-glusterfs.mount                                                                                        loaded    active   mounted   /var/log/glusterfs
  glusterd.service                                                                                               loaded    active   running   GlusterFS, a clustered file-system server
  glustereventsd.service                                                                                         loaded    active   running   Gluster Events Notifier
  glusterfssharedstorage.service                                                                                 loaded    active   running   Mount glusterfs sharedstorage

on a clear buster server installed from scratch:

# dpkg -l|grep gluster
ii  glusterfs-client                     7.8-1                               amd64        clustered file-system (client package)
ii  glusterfs-common                     7.8-1                               amd64        GlusterFS common libraries and translator modules
ii  glusterfs-server                     7.8-1                               amd64        clustered file-system (server package)
ii  libglusterfs0:amd64                  7.8-1                               amd64        GlusterFS shared library

# systemctl --all|grep gluster
  srv-gluster-xftpservices.mount                                                                                 loaded    active   mounted   /srv/gluster/xftpservices
  var-log-glusterfs.mount                                                                                        loaded    active   mounted   /var/log/glusterfs
  glusterd.service                                                                                               loaded    active   running   GlusterFS, a clustered file-system server
  glustereventsd.service                                                                                         loaded    active   running   Gluster Events Notifier

Thanks for help in advance.
Kind regards,

tl;dnr: some linux distribution package guidelines say it's bad to automatically start services after installing.

long answer:
The package layout of the gluster packages changed in the base packages of newer Debian and Ubuntu releases. To be compatible — e.g. to update from Buster's base glusterfs to the gluster community packages — the Gluster community packages switched to the same layout. If they used to start automatically before, and they don't now, that's almost certainly why.

For the most part we just copied the base package debian files, so whatever the base packages do, or don't do, that's what the community packages also do, including starting, or not starting the daemons.

Hello Kaleb,
thanks for your email.

i think i found the problem.
In previous releases, when gluster packages are installed, they are started.
In the case of 7.8-1 version i needed to check and enable them:
systemctl is-enabled xx
systemctl enable xx
systemctl start xx

where xx={glusterd.service, glustereventsd.service}

But i still miss the glusterfssharedstorage.service - i think it will be activated when a glusterfs client locally mounts a created volume.

I will go on and recheck all my steps. i will update this thread later.
Kind regards,
peterk

on updated server from stretch to buster:

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  425 Jul 21 05:16 gluster-ta-volume.service

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  464 Jul 21 05:16 glusterd.service
root@stretchtobluster:/lib/systemd/system#

Is something missing here?

The Gluster executables (including the daemons: glusterd, glusterfsd, glusterfs, and glustereventsd) aren't installed in /lib/systemd/...  and never have been.

They are installed in /usr/sbin/, and /usr/lib/$arch-linux-gnu/glusterfs/ or on newer Debian in /usr/libexec/glusterfs/

What do you think is missing?
