[Gluster-users] Clients can't connect after a server reboot (need to use volume force start)

After I rebooted my GlusterFS servers I can’t connect from clients any more.

The volume is running, but I have to do a volume start FORCE on all server
hosts to make it work again.

I am running glusterfs 3.12.1 on Ubuntu 16.04.

Is this a bug?


Here are more details:

"gluster volume status" returns:

Task Status of Volume gv0
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are no active volume tasks


"gluster volume start gv0" returns:
volume start: gv0: failed: Volume gv0 already started

After I use the force flag ("gluster volume start gv0 force") a "gluster
volume status" returns this:

gluster volume status
