Hi Ravi and colleagues
(apologies for hijacking this thread but I’m not sure where else to report this (and it is related).)
With gluster 3.7.10, running
#gluster volume set <volname> group virt
fails with:
volume set: failed: option : eager-lock does not exist
Did you mean eager-lock?
I had to remove the eager-lock setting from /var/lib/glusterd/groups/virt to get this to work. It seems like setting eager-lock has been removed from latest gluster. Is this correct? Either way, is there anything else I should do?
Cheers,
Roderick
