Hi I am using glusterfs with following scenario: Multiple untrusted groups of clients (hosts) need access to shared storage. For each group a separate glusterfs volume is created with authentication based on IP addresses. Groups and clients are dynamically created/removed so there are a lot of operations on volumes like start, stop, info, set. Unfortunately managing volumes with those command is quite unreliable. I am affected by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1002422. Is there any other suitable for my scenario way of using glusterfs which could reduce operations on volumes or somehow workaround this issue? regards -- Maciej Ga?kiewicz Shelly Cloud Sp. z o. o., Sysadmin http://shellycloud.com/, macias at shellycloud.com KRS: 0000440358 REGON: 101504426
Unsure if its recommended but you could try and do the following if the set command stops adding / removing settings: 1. Stop the volume 2. Edit the config file for that volume on each node ( /var/lib/glusterd/vols ) 3. Start the volume again. I've had to do this in order to update the access list since the set command stopped working.
