[Gluster-users] Permission denied closing file when accessing GlusterFS via NFS

I've noticed something interesting: when the "cp" over NFS is done the
first time it gives the "cp: closing" permission denied error as described
before and the destination file is created with zero size.

If we run the same "cp" over NFS a second time the files are written
correctly, with the full file data, and there's no error. So it appears
that the problem does not occur if the destination file exists.

Does that give anyone a clue as to what's happening? Thanks.
