Hi Whit, Thanks for your reply. I do know that it's not the Gluster-standard thing to use a crossover link. (Seems to me it's the obvious best way to do it, but it's not a configuration they're committed to.) It's possible that if you were doing your replication over the LAN rather than the

I disconnected the crossover (replication) link again and it happened again. When I re-connect it afterwards, it takes some seconds and Gluster NFS works again. If this behavior is normal, then the replication link becomes a single point of failure. Any suggestions?
