Hi all, I'm having some issues running firefox over gluster-mounted home folders. Everything works OK until I have to restart the server-side gluster services, or reboot the server. That seems to result in corruption of the firefox sqlite databases, resulting in loss of bookmarks and cookies. Is that a known issue? - Mike

Digging through the GlusterFS logfiles and file a bug report may be a good idea at this point. For your knowledge, I was having issues with GNOME DE too: gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-users/2010-December/006019.html -- Giovanni Toraldo - LiberSoft libersoft.it

Or just because it allows multiple clients over network? - In the later case I would recommend using nfs on server and client. Is the homedir mounted as glusterfs or via nfs? Why are you restarting the server? With nfs, if the server is not responding, the clients access suspends and blocks. I haven't yet tested myself what happens when glusterfs looses contact to all bricks. But then again I am investigating in gluster because of the replication across multiple machines to reduce the impact of a single machine failure (which is working with "-t glusterfs").
