Re: [Gluster-users] getting started

2010-09-17 Thread stephen mulcahy

Hi Charles,

I started using Glusterfs back in June. I initially tried 3.0.4 on 
Debian Squeeze. We ran into some problems as detailed at 
http://gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-users/2010-June/004841.html (and 
previous mails in that thread).


I note that it was a testing release of Debian which brings its own 
complications, but I also note that Ubuntu uses a lot of the packages 
from Debian. I also notice there has since been a 3.0.5 release.


But we did end up switching to CentOS for that GlusterFS 3.0.4 
deployment and didn't experience any similar problems.


We're mainly a Debian/Ubuntu shop - but if you're trying things out, you 
might want to consider doing an install on a vanilla CentOS.

Hello,
 I am getting started with GlusterFS and am starting with the latest

of Ubuntu?  Is another OS recommended?
   Thanks

So it seems to connect to the node33 server but fails to connect to
the node34 server.



Can you please provide the glusterfs log file on node34 server too? That
might give a clue on why this connection attempt failed.


Sure, see below. It didn't contain any obvious error messages

Re: [Gluster-users] Problems with Gluster 3.0.4 on Debian Squeeze

2010-06-11 Thread stephen mulcahy
I reinstalled node33 and node34 with centos 5.5 x86_64 and gluster 3.0.4 
and repeated the same scenario with node35 running debian squeeze x86_64 
and gluster 3.0.4 and didn't get the stale nfs file handle error.


so there may be an issue with gluster server 3.0.4 on debian squeeze (or 
at least my installation of it).
