[Gluster-users] Geo-Replication - Changelog socket is not present - Falling back to xsync

Fri May 22 00:01:13 UTC 2015

Thanks to JoeJulian / Kaushal I managed to re-enable the changelog option and the socket is now present.

For the record I had some clients running rhs gluster-fuse and our nodes are running glusterfs release and op-version are not “compatible”.

Now I have to wait for the init crawl see if it switches to changelog detector mode.

Thanks Kotresh
