 Hi Strahil,
I have the gluster setup on centos 7 cluster.I see glusterfsd service and it is in inactive state.
systemctl status glusterfsd.service● glusterfsd.service - GlusterFS brick processes (stopping only)   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/glusterfsd.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)   Active: inactive (dead)

so you mean starting this service in all the nodes where gluster volumes are created, will solve the issue ?

Thanks,Ahemad

 Hi ahemad,

the  script  kills  all gluster  processes,  so the clients won't wait  for the timeout before  switching to another node in the TSP.

In CentOS/RHEL,  there  is a  systemd  service called 'glusterfsd.service' that  is taking care on shutdown to kill all processes,  so clients won't hung.

systemctl cat glusterfsd.service --no-pager
# /usr/lib/systemd/system/glusterfsd.service
[Unit]
Description=GlusterFS brick processes (stopping only)
After=network.target glusterd.service

[Service]
Type=oneshot
# glusterd starts the glusterfsd processed on-demand
# /bin/true will mark this service as started, RemainAfterExit keeps it active
ExecStart=/bin/true
RemainAfterExit=yes
# if there are no glusterfsd processes, a stop/reload should not give an error
ExecStop=/bin/sh -c "/bin/killall --wait glusterfsd || /bin/true"
ExecReload=/bin/sh -c "/bin/killall -HUP glusterfsd || /bin/true"

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Best Regards,
Strahil  Nikolov
