Description Aravinda VK 2013-11-08 05:39:10 UTC

Description of problem:
When we try to create volume with bricks in root partition, gluster cli will give following error. But it creates volume successfully in script mode.

gluster volume create gv1 sumne.sumne:/gfs/gv1_b1 sumne.sumne:/gfs/gv1_b2

volume create: gv1: failed: The brick sumne.sumne:/gfs/gv1_b1 is is being created in the root partition. It is recommended that you don't use the system's root partition for storage backend. Or use 'force' at the end of the command if you want to override this behavior.


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create volume with bricks dir in root partition
gluster volume create gv1 sumne.sumne:/gfs/gv1_b1 sumne.sumne:/gfs/gv1_b2
It will fail with above mentioned error
2. Create volume with script mode
gluster volume create gv1 sumne.sumne:/gfs/gv1_b1 sumne.sumne:/gfs/gv1_b2 --mode=script
Creates volume successfully.

Actual results:
Creates volume successfully without any error.

Expected results:
Script mode should fail if brick dirs are system's root partition.

    cli: Fail creation of bricks on root partition in script mode
    
    Also added an option 'wignore' to save ourselves the trouble
    of modifying test scripts in our regression test suite as well
    as those that are still under review.
