Gluster users - Feb 2015 - Mounting issue, glusterfs vs mount.glusterfs, locale issue. I RTFM'd, but still a glitch

Hello,

Many people wrote here that the locale / numeric conversion problem when 
mounting would be solved by the 3.6.2 version.
It is not.

[root at client etc]# rpm -qa|grep gluster
glusterfs-libs-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64
glusterfs-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64
glusterfs-api-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64
glusterfs-fuse-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64

[root at server1_out_of_3 glusterfs]# rpm -qa|grep gluster
glusterfs-libs-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64
glusterfs-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64
glusterfs-geo-replication-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64
glusterfs-api-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64
glusterfs-fuse-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64
glusterfs-server-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64
glusterfs-cli-3.6.2-1.el7.x86_64

The tests below with the exact commands are still resulting in the same 
outcome...

Hey,
is the first command working without setting LC_NUMERIC?

Can you check if your problem might be related to the reported issue in
the "[Gluster-users] Mount failed" mailing list thread?

Hello,

I eventually took the time to check this out again, and read the thread 
noticed below.

Yes, I even tried to re-set my locale to fr_FR.utf8, and to run the 
command without setting LC_NUMERIC, and it is still working :
/usr/sbin/glusterfs --volfile-id=glvol00 --volfile-server=serv-gl-adm1 /mnt
> Can you check if your problem might be related to the reported issue in

Reading this thread, I saw I was in the exact same situation : Oracle 
Linux 7, trying to mount with the basic mount.glusterfs script.

I saw the BZ.

I manually added a one second sleep before the stat command, and it is 
now working whatever my tests : any command, automated in fstab after a 
reboot...

I don't get why Oracle Linux is acting differently?
