Thank you.
I wonder if this is still true for the current version (3.1.2) since
that message is quite old.
It would be nice, for better performance, if a client (which is also a
brick-server) could access its local copy of a file rather than chosing
a random server and read it via network.
Maybe a gluster developer can confirm this ?
Cheers, Rosario.

My understanding is that it will issue 2 read requests in parallel and
whichever returns the response first will be used.

This is a repost, I hope gluster developers can answer this question:
If I have a distributed/replicated volume and a gluster native client needs
to read a file, which server will be chosen ?
Let's say I have a 2-nodes cluster running the following gluster
configuration:
---
Volume Name: myvolume
Type: Replicate
Status: Started
Number of Bricks: 2
Transport-type: tcp
Bricks:
Brick1: host1:/brick
Brick2: host2:/brick
---
host1 and host2 are also gluster native clients, mounting "myvolume" in
/gluster
e.g.
[root@host1 ~]# mount | egrep "brick|gluster"
/dev/sda1 on /brick type ext3 (rw)
glusterfs#host1:/myvolume on /gluster type fuse
(rw,allow_other,default_permissions,max_read=131072)
[root@host2 ~]# mount | egrep "brick|gluster"
/dev/sda1 on /brick type ext3 (rw)
glusterfs#host2:/myvolume on /gluster type fuse
(rw,allow_other,default_permissions,max_read=131072)
If host1 needs to read the file /gluster/myfile will it use the local copy
from host1:/brick or the other copy from host2:/brick over the network ?
Is there a way to force the client to read the local copy ?
Cheers, Rosario
