Hi,

I have noticed that when using a distribute volume, if a brick is not 
accessible, volume is still accessible in read-write mode, but some 
files can’t be created (depending on filename).


Is it possible to force a distribute volume to be put in read-only 
mode during a brick failure, to avoid random access error?



You can either remount the volume as read-only.  ( mount with "ro" option)
OR
You can set the volume read-only. (gluster volume set  
read-only on)


I’m afraid of application behavior in this case, when only some files 
are not accessible. I prefer to have volume not writeable when a brick 
failed.


It is better to configure a distribute replicate volume, so that volume 
is accessible(and writable) even if one node is down.


Thanks,
Saravana
