[Gluster-users] Why does NUFA not allow mounts even from trusted peers without a subvolume?
I've installed GlusterFS on our 23-node Beowulf cluster. Each node has a disc which provides a brick for the GlusterFS volume and every node mounts this volume. The NUFA translator is ideal for the code we run and everythings works fine so far. Only problem is the frontend node, which does not have a subvolume: After I've turned on NUFA, it no longer can mount the volume. :( [2013-12-04 21:35:44.262738] E [nufa.c:641:init] 0-gv0-dht: Could not find specified or local subvol [2013-12-04 21:35:44.262766] E [xlator.c:390:xlator_init] 0-gv0-dht: Initialization of volume 'gv0-dht' failed, review your volfile again [2013-12-04 21:35:44.262783] E [graph.c:292:glusterfs_graph_init] 0-gv0-dht: initializing translator failed [2013-12-04 21:35:44.262799] E [graph.c:479:glusterfs_graph_activate] 0-graph: init failed Is there any technical reason for treating things this way? Why cannot NUFA fall back to distribute, like it does when the local subvolume has not enough free space? Or is there a better way to include a frontend node? -Michael

You are probably using 3.3 or older? This has been fixed in 3.4 ( http://review.gluster.org/5414) Thanks, Avati On Wed, Dec 4, 2013 at 2:05 PM, Michael Lampe <mlampe0 at googlemail.com>wrote:> I've installed GlusterFS on our 23-node Beowulf cluster.
