[Gluster-users] dht problems when one server is down

hi, 

I started 4 glusterfsd process to export 4 bricks, and  1 glusterfs process to mount them in a directory.
If i write a file named "KAKA" into the mountpoint, it's hashed to server 2 and the
write returns ok. Then if i kill the process of server 2, and write a file named "KAKA" again into the mountpoint
 to test whether the glusterfs can hash the file to one of the rest 3 servers. but the write operation got a "Transport endpoint is not connected"
error in command line. the log of client process shows that it also tried to hash file "KAKA" to server 2,not
one of the rest 3 servers. is this the expected result?

Actually,  I expected the glusterfs can write the file "KAKA" to one of the rest 3 servers. so i can test
when the process of server 2 is restarted, how glusterfs handle the duplicate files.

Anyone can help me ? thanks in advance!
