[Gluster-users] failed to start big volume with many bricks

[nuaa_liuben]

Hi gluster-users,

I create a big volume which includes 500 bricks in a single physical server.
Shell script as followed.

#-----------------------------------------------
#! /bin/sh

BRICKS=""
PREFIX="192.168.1.57:/data/bigvol/brick"

for i in `seq 1 500`; do

BRICKS="$BRICKS ""$PREFIX""$i"

done

#echo $BRICKS
gluster volume create bigvol replica 2 $BRICKS
#-----------------------------------------------

# gluster volume info bigvol
Volume Name: bigvol
Type: Distributed-Replicate
Status: Started
Number of Bricks: 250 x 2 = 500
Transport-type: tcp
Bricks:
Brick1: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick1
Brick2: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick2
Brick3: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick3
Brick4: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick4
Brick5: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick5
Brick6: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick6
Brick7: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick7
Brick8: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick8
Brick9: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick9
......
Brick494: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick494
Brick495: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick495
Brick496: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick496
Brick497: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick497
Brick498: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick498
Brick499: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick499
Brick500: 192.168.1.140:/data/bigvol/brick500
 
However, 'gluster volume start bigvol' is failed. And, only about 150 glusterfs processed  are started successfully. 
Attachment is glusterd log file.

Does anybody know why? 

thanks,
liuben
