[Gluster-users] mountpoint permissions changing by themselves
Hi, We've been using an AFR configuration of gluster where there are a few gluster servers and many gluster clients. We've noticed that recently, the permissions on the mount point from the client's perspective occasionally change to 444. There's no evidence of sudo or chmod activity in system logs, and cron.d, cron.daily, logrotate.d all come up clean as well, which is a good thing. We've been trying to track down any rogue scripts, but it's worth checking out if there are circumstances in which gluster might change the permissions of its mountpoint. When the permissions do change to 444 on the mountpoint, they also change on /var/gluster/ns to match (as expected). Anyone seen this on a gluster environment before? Thanks, -elb-

Actually, that's 666, not 444.
