[Gluster-users] gluster volume create failure

[John Smith]

Hi,


Im trying to follow this guide to set up a simple cluster:
http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/QuickStart

But when I issue this command :
gluster volume create glustervol01 replica 2
192.168.126.128:/export/brick1 192.168.126.129:/export/brick1

I get the following eror:
volume create: glustervol01: failed: The brick
192.168.126.129:/export/brick1 is a mount point. Please create a
sub-directory under the mount point and use that as the brick
directory. Or use 'force' at the end of the command if you want to
override this behavior.

Am I doing something wrong ? The guide tells you to 'mkdir -p
/export/brick1', and add '/dev/glusterfsvol/glusterfslv1
/export/brick1 xfs defaults 1 2' to /etc/fstab. So yeah,
/exports/brick is a mount point. You just created it. I dont get it...
