Hey Simon, I was also investigating both the steps you did. And was also about to recommend them :) They are more a workaround. We basically need some patches to change the defaults on Node, to let gluster work out of the box. This would include persisting the correct paths and enabling glusterd if enabled. - fabian > Thanks, > > Simon > > -----Original Message----- > From: users-boun...@ovirt.org [mailto:users-boun...@ovirt.org] On Behalf Of > Simon Barrett > Sent: 28 May 2014 14:12 > To: Ryan Barry; Fabian Deutsch; Doron Fediuck > Cc: users@ovirt.org > Subject: Re: [ovirt-users] Persisting glusterfs configs on an oVirt node > > Thanks for the replies. > > I cannot get glusterd to start on boot and I lose all gluster config every > reboot. > > The following shows what I did on the node to start glusterd, create a volume > etc, followed by the state of the node after a reboot. > > > [root@ovirt_node]# service glusterd status glusterd is stopped > > [root@ovirt_node]# chkconfig --list glusterd > glusterd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off > > [root@ovirt_node]# service glusterd start Starting glusterd:[ OK ] > > gluster> volume create vmstore 10.22.8.46:/data/glusterfs/vmstore > volume create: vmstore: success: please start the volume to access data > > gluster> vol start vmstore > volume start: vmstore: success > > gluster> vol info > Volume Name: vmstore > Type: Distribute > Volume ID: 5bd01043-1352-4014-88ca-e632e264d088 > Status: Started > Number of Bricks: 1 > Transport-type: tcp > Bricks: > Brick1: 10.22.8.46:/data/glusterfs/vmstore > > [root@ovirt_node]# ls -1 /var/lib/glusterd/vols/vmstore/ bricks > node_state.info trusted-vmstore-fuse.vol cksum > rbstate > vmstore.10.22.8.46.data-glusterfs-vmstore.vol > info > run > vmstore-fuse.vol > > [root@ovirt_node]# grep gluster /etc/rwtab.d/* > /etc/rwtab.d/ovirt:files /var/lib/glusterd > > [root@ovirt_node]# chkconfig glusterd on [root@ovirt_node]# chkconfig --list > glusterd > glusterd 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off > > > #################################### > I then reboot the node and see the following: > #################################### > > [root@ovirt_node]# service glusterd status glusterd is stopped > > [root@ovirt_node]# chkconfig --list glusterd > glusterd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off > > [root@ovirt_node]# ls -l /var/lib/glusterd/vols/ total 0 > > No more gluster volume configuration files. > > I've taken a look through > http://www.ovirt.org/Node_Troubleshooting#Making_changes_last_.2F_Persisting_changes > but I'm unsure what needs to be done to persist this configuration. > > To get glusterd to start on boot, do I need to manually persist /etc/rc* > files? > > I see "files /var/lib/glusterd" mentioned in /etc/rwtab.d/ovirt.
