Hi Shehjar:
The hosts with exports in the replication pool are already running NFS
servers so I need to setup GlusterFS native NFS server on another
server. I am using the following /etc/glusterfs/glusterfsd.vol:
Thats not recommended but I can see why this is needed. The simplest way
to run the nfs server for the two replicas is to simply copy over the
nfs volume file from the current nfs server. It will work right away.
The volume file below will not.
Performance will also drop because now both your replicas are another
network hop away. I guess the ideal situation would be to allow gnfs to
run even when there is already a server running. Its on the ToDo list.

volume gluster01
type protocol/client
option transport-type tcp
option remote-host gluster01
option remote-port 6996
option remote-subvolume brick
end-volume
volume gluster02
type protocol/client
option transport-type tcp
option remote-host gluster02
option remote-port 6996
option remote-subvolume brick
end-volume
volume repl
type cluster/replicate
subvolumes gluster01 gluster02
end-volume
volume writebehind
type performance/write-behind
option cache-size 4MB
subvolumes repl
end-volume
volume dshare
type performance/io-cache
option cache-size 1GB
subvolumes writebehind
end-volume
volume nfs-server
type nfs/server
subvolumes dshare
end-volume
and I start glusterfsd
Does this look about right? Is the remote-port correct?
Thanks,
Bernard

Regarding this pdf, only the portions which show mount commands and the
FAQ
section is applicable to 3.1. In 3.1, NFS gets started by default for a
volume started with the volume start command.
So basically you're saying if I have a 2 server replicated volume on
gluster01 and gluster02, and I did volume start on gluster01, I should
be able to mount the volume via NFS from either of the servers?
Yes. You can test that both servers have exported the same volume by:
$ showmount -e gluster01
$ showmount -e gluster02
Is exporting via glusterfsd still supported?
Yes.
