[Gluster-users] [Nfs-ganesha-devel] Questions on ganesha HA and shared storage size

[Kaleb S. KEITHLEY]

Hi,

I would actually prefer that we solve the issue with using the unbundled
libntirpc. That seems like the better long term solution, and one we
have to tackle anyway as we have a hard end date for using the bundled
libntirpc in Fedora and EPEL.

In the mean time I've reverted the EPEL 7 build (and perhaps the Fedora
Rawhide build too) to use the bundled lib. Packages will land in Fedora
and EPEL after a nominal testing period. Or you can get them sooner by
enabling the Updates-Testing repo in
/etc/yum.repos.d/{fedora-updates-testing,epel-testing}.repo

Regards,

If you're trying to use these packages with glusterfs-3.7.x then I guess I'm not too surprised if something isn't working. Look for nfs-ganesha packages built against glusterfs-3.7.x in the CentOS Storage SIG or watch for the same on download.gluster.org. They're not there yet, but they will be eventually.
