[Gluster-users] Unreachable peer stops data transfer on volume

[R.C.]

GlusterFS 3.1.3

[192.168.0.1]# gluster volume create test replica 2 transport tcp 
192.168.0.1:/gluster 192.168.0.2:/gluster
[192.168.0.1]# gluster volume start test

[192.168.0.3]# mount -t glusterfs 192.168.0.2:/test /mnt/test

Now share /mnt/test with SAMBA and start copying a bunch of files.
During data transfer unplug network cable from 192.168.0.1.
Data transfer hangs as long as the SAMBA client (being WinXP or smbclient) 
timeouts and aborts data transfer.

I think this could easily be unacceptable in a production environment.

I guessed the fuse-mounting client was able to load balancing between 
gluster peers.
