Gluster users - Jul 2011 - Problems auto-mounting volume under Ubuntu 10.10

Hey all, I'm having problems getting a gluster volume to auto-mount on boot
in an Ubuntu 10.10 environment.  I can mount it manually just fine.

Strangely I see nothing in the gluster logs or /var/log/messages relating to
gluster.  My fstab looks like:

192.168.1.202:/test-volume /mnt/test-volume glusterfs defaults,_netdev 0 0


Anyone have any ideas?


Best,

Devin

I had better success with autofs, instead of fstab. It's generally more
resiliant too, for mounting anything other than native local disks.

How did you try to mount? Have you tried mounting without fstab entry like
"mount -t glusterfs 192.168.1.22:/test-volume /mnt/test-volume" at the
command line? If there is nothing in the gluster logs, then glusterfs was
never executed (or /sbin/mount.glusterfs was not executed/not doing the
right thing). Adding a couple of 'echo's in /sbin/mountglusterfs should
help.
