<P><FONT SIZE=2>Dear Team,<BR>
I have installed and configured gluster in one server and client.<BR>
one time it was worked fine, again later it is not working.<BR>
my configuration files.<BR>
server<BR>
[root@rhel2 ~]# cat /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs-server.vol<BR>
volume rhel2<BR>
type storage/posix # POSIX FS translator<BR>
option directory /opt # Export this directory<BR>
end-volume<BR>
<BR>
volume rhel2<BR>
type protocol/server<BR>
option transport-type tcp/server # For TCP/IP transport<BR>
option client-volume-filename /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs-client.vol<BR>
subvolumes export test<BR>
option auth.ip.rhel2.allow * # Allow access to "brick" volume<BR>
end-volume<BR>
[root@rhel2 ~]#<BR>
<BR>
client<BR>
[root@test ~]# cat /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs-client.vol<BR>
volume rhel2<BR>
type protocol/client<BR>
option transport-type tcp/client<BR>
option remote-host 10.129.150.227<BR>
option remote-subvolume rhel2<BR>
end-volume<BR>
[root@test ~]#<BR>
problem:<BR>
<BR>
[root@test ~]# glusterfs --server 10.129.150.227 /mnt/glusterfs/ --volume-name r hel2<BR>
glusterfs: could not open specfile<BR>
[root@test ~]#<BR>
<BR>
Apart from these i have few doubts,<BR>
1)In our website it told that gluster there is no single point of failure.<BR>
But as per configuration point of view it is like server and client model so if server fails<BR>
client cannot able to mount.<BR>
2)In server how can i confirm whether server was exported or not where as in NFS we have command to check showmount.<BR>
<BR>
kindly inform me If iam doing wrong, it will help full for me to go further checks.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks and Regards<BR>
