[Gluster-users] NFS vs. auth.allow

[Marcel Pennewiß]

Hi,

we're running into an unexpected issue while using NFS... 
Maybe this could be added to FAQ...


GlusterFS-server: 10.0.1.1, 10.0.1.2
Clients: 10.0.1.100, 10.0.1.101
Backupserver: 10.0.1.200

Access to the volume glustervol1 is permitted to the client adresses.

glusterfs1-01 ~ # gluster volume info glustervol1
Volume Name: glustervol1
...
Options Reconfigured:
nfs.disable: off
nfs.rpc-auth-allow: 10.0.1.200
auth.allow: 10.0.1.100,10.0.1.101

Against expectations this did not work :(

glusterfs1-01 ~ # showmount -e
Export list for glusterfs1-01

Problem seems to be, that the IP-adresses of the GlusterFS-Servers are not in 
the auth.allow list. An "Authentication failed" can be seen in the logfiles of 
nfs.vol

After executing

gluster volume set glustervol1 set auth.allow 10.0.1.1,10.0.1.2, 
10.0.1.100,10.0.1.101

everythings fine ;)

glusterfs1-01 ~ # showmount -e
Export list for glusterfs1-01:
/glustervol1 10.0.1.200

Regards,
Marcel
