Thanks Kaleb and Edy!<br>
<br>
I have now redone the cluster using the latest and greatest following<br>
the above guide and repeated the same test I was doing before (the<br>
rsync while loop) with success. I let (forgot) it run for about a day<br>
and it was still chugging along nicely when I aborted it, so success<br>
there!<br>
<br>
On to the next test; the catastrophic failure test- where one of the<br>
servers dies, I'm having a more difficult time with.<br>
<br>
1) I start with mounting the share over NFS 4.1 and then proceed with<br>
writing a 8 GiB large random data file with 'dd', while "hard-cutting"<br>
the power to the server I'm writing to, the transfer just stops<br>
indefinitely, until the server comes back again. Is that supposed to<br>
happen? Like this:<br>
<br>
# dd if=/dev/urandom of=/var/tmp/test.bin bs=1M count=8192<br>
# mount -o vers=4.1 hv03v.localdomain:/data /mnt/<br>
# dd if=/var/tmp/test.bin of=/mnt/test.bin bs=1M status=progress<br>
2434793472 bytes (2,4 GB, 2,3 GiB) copied, 42 s, 57,9 MB/s<br>
<br>
(here I cut the power and let it be for almost two hours before turning<br>
it on again)<br>
<br>
dd: error writing '/mnt/test.bin': Remote I/O error<br>
2325+0 records in<br>
2324+0 records out<br>
2436890624 bytes (2,4 GB, 2,3 GiB) copied, 6944,84 s, 351 kB/s<br>
# umount /mnt<br>
<br>
Here the unmount command hung and I had to hard reset the client.<br>
<br>
2) Another question I have is why some files "change" as you copy them<br>
out to the Gluster storage? Is that the way it should be? This time, I<br>
deleted eveything in the destination directory to start over:<br>
<br>
# mount -o vers=4.1 hv03v.localdomain:/data /mnt/<br>
# rm -f /mnt/test.bin<br>
# dd if=/var/tmp/test.bin of=/mnt/test.bin bs=1M status=progress<br>
8557428736 bytes (8,6 GB, 8,0 GiB) copied, 122 s, 70,1 MB/s<br>
8192+0 records in<br>
8192+0 records out<br>
8589934592 bytes (8,6 GB, 8,0 GiB) copied, 123,039 s, 69,8 MB/s<br>
# md5sum /var/tmp/test.bin <br>
073867b68fa8eaa382ffe05adb90b583 /var/tmp/test.bin<br>
# md5sum /mnt/test.bin <br>
634187d367f856f3f5fb31846f796397 /mnt/test.bin<br>
# umount /mnt<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance!<br>
