[Gluster-devel] Hard mounts?

Hi list,
I just discovered glusterfs recently, which kind of
puzzles me, why haven't I heard of it before? I have
looked for something like it for quite a while now!
Much about glusterfs just seems more "correct" than
many other solutions. It seems more scalable, and I
mean that in both ways, up and down. Many of the
other solutions neglect the down part.
Anyway, I have a question. Is there anyway to make a
glusterfs mount be "hard" the way that nfs filesystems
can be mounted "hard"? I would like a process to
block if the server is down until the server returns.
Currently if I run a "ls" on filesystem when the
server is down I get:
ls: /music: Transport endpoint is not connected
If this is not currently possible, is it in the
"works"/plan?
Thanks,
-Martin
