[Gluster-users] autofs using glusterfs not NFS

Tue Aug 30 21:58:57 UTC 2011

/etc/fstab
192.168.1.11:/res   /res   glusterfs defaults,_netdev   0 0

/etc/master
/home  /etc/auto.home  --timeout=1200

/etc/auto.home
*     localhost:/res/users/&

That's it, works like a champ. Otherwise I have to do a lot of /etc/passwd hackery, which isn't something I'd like to do :-)

how's mount output look. I didn't think about the double mount..

the splat won't work. we have had the same issue. we moved homes to a direct mount.

Gluster clients and servers are CentOS 5.6 x86_64 using the 3.2.3 Gluster provided -core and -fuse RPMs.

I'm trying to use /etc/auto.home to automount my users home directories using glusterfs fuse client, and I keep getting "transport endpoint is not connected".

The summary: can successfully mount via glusterfs and nfs using /etc/fstab, and can successfully automount nfs via auto.home, cannot automount glusterfs via auto.home

/etc/auto.home using NFS mounts successfully and generally works, short of some locking and permissions issues.
*   192.168.1.11:/res/users/&

However, if I change to use glusterfs I get errors when attempting to mount (where res is the volume name, users is a directory in the root of the volume, and jdoe is the user name):

*   -fstype=glusterfs 192.168.1.11:/res/users/&

Here are the errors in the /var/log/gluster/home-jdoe.log

Anyone know if this is expected to work?
