Gluster users - Jun 2013 - Ubuntu 12.04 and fallocate()

Hey all,

Trying to use fallocate with qcow2 images to increase performance. When
doing so (with OpenStack), my Gluster mountpoint goes into "Transport
endpoint is not connected".

I am running the Ubuntu 12.04 version of glusterfs-client/server
(3.2.5-1ubuntu1) and fuse (2.8.6-2ubuntu2).

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jacob

This sounds like the following bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=856704

Note that the fix there is to not crash and return -ENOSYS. ;) fallocate
still isn't supported in gluster, though patches for said functionality
are currently under review.
