Re: [Gluster-devel] [Gluster-users] One client can effectively hang entire gluster array

Not a bad idea for a workaround, but that would require significant investment with our current setup. All of our compute nodes are stateless / have no disks. All storage is network storage. It's probably still not feasible if we added disks because some simulations produce terabytes of data. We wo

As a potential solution on the compute node side, can you have users copy relevant data from the gluster volume to a local disk (ie $TMDIR), operate on that disk, write output files to that disk, and then write the results back to persistent storage once the job is complete? There are lots of fact
