I am using glusterfs with two servers as a file server sharing files via samba and ctdb. I cannot use samba vfs gluster plugin, due to bug in current Centos version of samba. So I am mounting via fuse and exporting the volume to samba from the mount point. Upon initial boot, the server where

Re: [Gluster-users] Access to Servers hangs after stop one server...

Glusterfs needs quorum, so if you have two servers and one goes down, there is no quorum, so all writes stop until the server comes back up. You can add a third server as an arbiter which does not store data in the bricks, but still uses some minimal space (to keep metadata for the files). HTH,

You have encountered a (if not "the") major flaw in glusterfs, it is not very good at dealing with lots of small files. There are some tunables in gluster that may help just a bit, but you will *not* get the same speeds as raw direct attached storage without clustering or be even close to it.
