In this case I did not have any other brick running. It was my first try. Just a fresh install and then set up my first replicating vol with 3.4: On node1 /raid5hs/glusterfs/export On node2 /raid5hs/glusterfs/export Just did on the first node: gluster volume create sambacluster replica 2 transport tcp s4master:/raid5hs/glusterfs/export s4slave:/raid5hs/glusterfs/export
And voila the error occurred!! I think this is something more serious in 3.4. I did not had that with 3.2!!!!!!!!!! One behaviuor I recognized with this error: Only on one node the .glusterfs file was written in /raid5hs/glusterfs/export on the other node the file was missing !!!!!!!!!!!!!! This responds to the /etc/glusterfs/glusterd.vol file that was missing later on on starting the brick! I had to copy it over from the other node to start it successfully.

We specifically brought this because creating volumes with directories which are subdirectories of other bricks, or if a subdirectory belongs to another brick can result in dangerous corruption of your data. Please create volumes with brick directories which are cleanly separate in the namespace. Avati On Wed, Aug 21, 2013 at 7:51 AM, Stroppa Daniele (strp) <[email protected]> wrote: Thanks Daniel. I'm indeed running Gluster 3.4 on CentOS 6.4. I've tried your suggestion, it does work for me too, but it's not an optimal solution. Maybe someone could shed some light on this behaviour?
