The clients do *not* need to run glusterd.
So what is the recommended way of mounting gluster volumes?
Assuming we have a distributed replica of two gluster servers:
server1-server2
And several clients (client1, client2, ..., clientN).
If we use the following command line:
mount -t glusterfs server1:/test-volume /mnt/glusterfs
Our mount will die if server1 is offline.
Similar, if we use this entry in /etc/fstab:
server1:/test-volume /mnt/glusterfs glusterfs defaults,_netdev 0 0
If server1 is offline, but server2 is online, the client will not be
able to access the data.
Could anyone shed some light on achieving high availability with glusterfs?
