I have a couple questions issues at this point:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText> - On a client machine, "glusterfs" is not recognized as a valid type unless gluster-server is installed.

More a clarification than issue here. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText> - The glusterfs process is taking between 50% and 80% CPU on both the brick and client systems (these are fairly powerful new servers).<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText> - No doubt linked to the above, the mounted filesystem hangs indefinitely when accessed. I tried an "ls -a" on the mounted filesystem, for example, which hangs forever. I tested this by mounting a brick system to itself and to a client which is not a brick and the same behavior was observed. Both were glusterfs mounts. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoPlainText> There is nothing special about my deployment except for the use of transport = tcp,rdma.
