HI,

Are your PUBLIC_ADDRESSES different from the NODES addresses (they must not be used on any real interface)? Is the /mnt/datavol mounted on all nodes?

I also found I had to copy /var/lib/samba/private/* to the /mnt/datavol/lock area to get samba working.

Cheers

Alex

Hi Alex and friends,

I have installed CTDB and all related packages . I did all the required steps to configure ctdb and samba configuration, but somehow the lockfile functionality does not work.


/Following is the ctdb configuration:/
CTDB_RECOVERY_LOCK="/mnt/datavaol/lock/lockfile"
CTDB_PUBLIC_ADDRESSES=/etc/ctdb/public_addresses
CTDB_MANAGES_SAMBA=yes
CTDB_NODES=/etc/ctdb/nodes


Having the above config I was getting the error "Unable to find lockfile". So the problem was with CTDB_RECOVERY_LOCK, so I commented it. After this I again started ctdb services but now the Samba starting was a big problem.... I was getting the following error: Starting SMB services: /bin/bash: line 1: 4339 Aborted (core dumped) smbd -D

/Following is the smb.conf:/
[global]
        clustering = yes
        idmap backend = tdb2
        private dir = /mnt/datavol/lock

[share]
        comment = Gluster and CTDB based shared volume
        path = /mnt/datavol/share
        read only = no
        guest ok = yes


I tried every possible way to start Samba daemon but failed to do so ..

I would really appreciate if you can look into this configuration and suggest me some tips to make ctdb running without any errors..

Thanks & Regards
Sharad

    Hi Susant,

    I have installed Glusterfs in 2 machines which I want to use for
    establishing cluster. I am using CentOs 6.6. The gluster volume
    is set up and running fine. I am manually creating the files onto
    the mounted volume and they are replicating..

    So far looks like everything is working. Now I have configured a
    shared ip address for reaching the replicated volume by using the
    following command:

    gluster volume set[VOLUME]auth.allow[IP ADDRESS]

    This IP address is visible to me under "gluster volume info", but
    I am unable to ping this ip address. I am getting the message
    that "Host is unreachable"

    I need this ip address reachable so that I can connect my
    application which needs to use this shared ip to connect to cluster.

    This application is a little urgent for me. I would really
    appreciate your help..

    Thanks
    Sharad

    Hi,

    That command is just setting an acl for that IP to connect to the
    gluster daemon.

    Normally you don't need to add any IP addresses as glusterfs
    clients will know about both servers as soon as they connect to
    one of them. If you're using Samba or NFS the preferred option is
    to use CTDB to spread a pool of virtual IP addresses over the servers.

    Cheers

    Alex
