[Gluster-users] not able to use gluster if one of the nodes offline

[Mohit Anchlia]

There seems to be some problem with your setup. Can you look at your
/etc/hosts file and see if it's setup correctly on web3-int?

Also, post output of gluster peer status, gluster volume info, ping
web3-int, ping web4-int from the surviving node.
