hi R.C.,
      The network ping timeout for glusterfs is around 45 seconds. If samba 
client ping timeout is lesser than this then the connection could be aborted. 
Could you check if the same happens after setting the ping-timeout to something 
lesser than the samba client.
example: gluster volume set test network.ping-timeout 10

Pranith.

Subject: [Gluster-users] Unreachable peer stops data transfer on volume

GlusterFS 3.1.3

[192.168.0.1]# gluster volume create test replica 2 transport tcp 
192.168.0.1:/gluster 192.168.0.2:/gluster
[192.168.0.1]# gluster volume start test

[192.168.0.3]# mount -t glusterfs 192.168.0.2:/test /mnt/test

Now share /mnt/test with SAMBA and start copying a bunch of files.
During data transfer unplug network cable from 192.168.0.1.
Data transfer hangs as long as the SAMBA client (being WinXP or smbclient) 
timeouts and aborts data transfer.

I think this could easily be unacceptable in a production environment.

I guessed the fuse-mounting client was able to load balancing between 
gluster peers.
