[Gluster-users] Replication doesn't work, saying "Could not create the task"

[Vladimir Yakovlev]

OK, got it, thanks.
So Gluster will not replicate files itself, but I should use rsync instead.
Right?

If I mount Gluster share and edit any file within, it syncs between nodes.

Assuming it was my fault, sorry for disturbing.

Thanks,
BR,
Vladimir.
