Actually, if you want to mount *any* nfs volumes(of Gluster) OR exports (of kernel-nfs-server), you cannot do it with locking on a system where a glusterfs(nfs process) is running(since 3.3.0). However, if its ok to mount without locking, then you should be able to do it on localhost.

There is nothing stopping you from mounting localhost:/volume on all your boxes. That is exactly how our 3.2.5 and 3.3.0 environments access volumes for the performance reasons you identified. _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users@gluster.org http://gluster.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
