Description Vikhyat Umrao 2013-12-18 07:44:08 UTC 
Hi,

We do not have any feature in glusterFS to exempt some client IPs or the RHS servers from anonymous uid and gid feature and/or from root squashing.
This feature already exist in NFS /etc/exports.

NFS feature in /etc/exports example:
Example:

# sample /etc/exports file
/         master(rw) trusty(rw,no_root_squash)

This exports the entire filesystem to machines master and trusty.  In addition to write access, all uid squashing is turned off  for host  trusty.

/home/joe pc001(rw,all_squash,anonuid=150,anongid=100)

This example only use anonuid=150 and anongid=100 for host pc001.

We can come up with exempt host names list in RHS server.

Feature requests make most sense against the 'mainline' release, there is no ETA for an implementation and requests might get forgotten when filed against a particular version.
