[Gluster-devel] NFS Ganesha fails to export a volume

Hm...

In such case , we got only 1 real problem left -> ocf:heartbeat:portblock supports only IPTABLES.
In my EL8 tests , NFS-Ganesha works if firewalld is disabled and I install iptables & iptables-services, yet this is highly unrecommended by Red Hat.

I got a feature request opened https://github.com/ClusterLabs/resource-agents/issues/1577 , but I believe that we also need a bugzilla entry on bugzilla.redhat.com .What do you think about ?

I do not know other Distro that is using NFTABLES by default .


Any advise on that ?

Strahil Nikolov

Thanks for bringing this to our attention @Strahil

[1] and [2]  were discretely worked handling different issues at the same span of time. Merging [2] was to be done before [1], which was done otherwise.
