Known Issues

  • 1227677: Glusterd crashes and cannot start after rebalance
  • 1227656: Glusted dies when adding new brick to a distributed volume and converting to replicated volume
  • 1210256: gluster volume info --xml gives back incorrect typrStr in xml

  • Addition of bricks dynamically to cold or hot tiers in a tiered volume is not supported.

  • The following configuration changes are necessary for qemu and samba integration with libgfapi to work seamlessly:

# gluster volume set <volname> server.allow-insecure on Edit /etc/glusterfs/glusterd.vol to contain this line: option rpc-auth-allow-insecure on

Post 1, restarting the volume would be necessary:
# gluster volume stop <volname>
# gluster volume start <volname>

Post 2, restarting glusterd would be necessary:

# service glusterd restart
or
# systemctl restart glusterd
