[Gluster-users] Managing volumes is unreliable

Unsure if its recommended but you could try and do the following if the set command stops adding / removing settings:

1. Stop the volume
2. Edit the config file for that volume on each node ( /var/lib/glusterd/vols )
3. Start the volume again.

I've had to do this in order to update the access list since the set command stopped working.

Best Regards Christian

Subject: [Gluster-users] Managing volumes is unreliable

Hi

I am using glusterfs with following scenario:
Multiple untrusted groups of clients (hosts) need access to shared storage. For each group a separate glusterfs volume is created with authentication based on IP addresses. Groups and clients are dynamically created/removed so there are a lot of operations on volumes like start, stop, info, set.

Unfortunately managing volumes with those command is quite unreliable.
I am affected by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1002422.

Is there any other suitable for my scenario way of using glusterfs which could reduce operations on volumes or somehow workaround this issue?

regards
