Gluster users - Oct 2016 - gluster volume not mounted on boot

Hi Kevin,

Thank you for your help, I manage to set it up!

But I have a question, it is possible to mount a volume at /gluster-data 
for example???


I cannot do:

opsld04:~ # cat /etc/auto.master
#
# Sample auto.master file
# This is a 'master' automounter map and it has the following format:
# mount-point [map-type[,format]:]map [options]
# For details of the format look at auto.master(5).
#
/     /etc/auto.map.d/master.autofs



and then :


opsld04:~ # cat /etc/auto.map.d/master.autofs
gluster-data 	 
-fstype=glusterfs,defaults,_netdev,backupvolfile-server=other_node 
   gluster1:/volume1



in auto.master file I have to set up a path other than root.

Did you manage to mount it  just at the first level of root, hanging from /

Cheers.

No, the way AutoFS works it needs a directory just for itself, so you can't
do that.
I think the simplest would be to use /mnt/autofs like us, and then do a symbolic
link :

ln -s /mnt/autofs/gluster-data /gluster-data

That way you'd end up with pretty much what you want.
