Title:
Unable to mount local glusterfs volume at boot
Status in “glusterfs” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Mounting glusterfs volumes from localhost in fstab does not work
because the mounts are started before the glusterfs-server daemon.
The problem is that upstart runs mountall before it runs the
/etc/rc2.d/S20glusterfs-server initscript, so when the mount is tried
it fails because there is not yet any glusterfs-server running on
localhost.
To reproduce (as root):
apt-get install glusterfs-server glusterfs-client
gluster volume create test <eth0-IP>:/var/tmp
gluster volume start test
mkdir /media/test
echo "localhost:test /media/test glusterfs defaults 0 0" >> /etc/fstab
shutdown -r now
After rebooting, the new volume will not be mounted. However, once
the system has started and glusterfs-server daemon is running, doing a
'mount -a' will work to mount the volume (confirming that the volume &
fstab config are correct.)
Solution:
The solution is to replace the glusterfs-server initscript with a
proper upstart job which will start the glusterfs-server daemon before
the glusterfs mounts are tried by mountall. I have contributed the
necessary upstart job upstream to the glusterfs project and it is
included in the development source tree under
extras/Ubuntu/glusterd.conf.
https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/blob/master/extras/Ubuntu/glusterd.conf
To include this file in the glusterfs-server binary package, remove
the debian/glusterfs-server.init file from the source package and add
that upstart job to it as debian/glusterfs-server.upstart.
