I very much appreciate the feedback. I am a bit confused, though. What do you mean by “tell the client to connect to a virtual IP address”; do you mean issue the mount command using a virtual IP address? I’m presently mounting it on localhost, which should always be available. The only clients accessing the volume are two gluster nodes, which are each holding replicas of a single volume, so the idea is each one accesses its own replica with gluster used to sync the replicas. Thus when one goes down, the other relies on its own copy of the data. So how would your idea work in this scenario: The two nodes have a virtual IP address, each one mounts that IP address instead of localhost, so when one of them goes down the other assumes that IP address and … well, this is where I get confused?

Some background first. The mount point is a single IP or host name. The only thing the client uses it for is to download a describing all the bricks in the cluster. The next thing is it opens connections to all the nodes containing bricks for that volume. So the answer is tell the client to connect to a virtual IP address. I personally use keepalived for this but you can use any one of the many IPVS Or other tools that manage IPS for this. I assign the VIP to a primary node then have each node monitor the cluster processes if they die on a node it goes into a faulted state and can not own the VIP. As long as the client are connecting to a running host in the cluster you are fine even if that host doesn't own bricks in the volume but is aware of them as part of the cluster. -- Sent from my HP Pre3 ________________________________ On Nov 24, 2014 8:07 PM, Eric Ewanco <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi all, We’re trying to use gluster as a replicated volume. It works OK when both peers are up but when one peer is down and the other reboots, the “surviving” peer does not automount glusterfs. Furthermore, after the boot sequence is complete, it can be mounted without issue. It automounts fine when the peer is up during startup. I tried to google this and while I found some similar issues, I haven’t found any solutions to my problem. Any insight would be appreciated.
