[Gluster-users] NFS file locks

Ian,
Can you send me the whole log file? The trace output captures all locks granted/blocked etc. Just wanted to analyze the log from the start of the lock testing session (when you execute locktest.pl) to when the problem is seen.

Pavan,

I turned on logging, and ran the perl lockd script again.  Below is the output during the file locking test.  If I remount the share it reproduces the 1st two errors over again exactly the same but with different timestamps.

Ian,
Mandatory locking is not supported in 3.0.x releases. Even if you turn this option on, it does not
in any way change any locking behavior in GlusterFS. You can perhaps try this, specifically for locking:

 Turn on an option in the locks translator - 'option trace on'. It prints debug information about locks which is useful for debugging.

Send us the output and we'll see if a bug needs to be filed. Nevertheless, we'll try and reproduce it in-house.

Shehjar,

Good catch on the typo, I fixed it an restarted.  Still had the same
issue.  I also was able to get samba working, and file locking seems to
work fine; however, with samba the file owner/group and priv aren't
transferred to clients.  This at least points to an issue with how
NFS/FUSE/GLUSTER are working together.

I'm also searching to see if I can find any other FUSE file systems that
have had similar issues.

This is nothing to worry about..just debugging output.

I'll continue looking into this but in the mean time you could test over

NFS again with "manditory" changed to "mandatory". Let me know if that 
works.

Thanks
