Description Khoi Mai 2014-12-04 20:42:08 UTC
Description of problem:  Updating from glusterfs3.4.2 to gluster3.5.3, I am specifying the number of attempts in the /etc/fstab.  On gluster3.5.3 the syntax is no longer valid and considered obsolete.  I am unable to find the correct version of how to use that in the examples of man mount.glusterfs


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): glusterfs-3.5.3-1


How reproducible:
everytime

Steps to Reproduce:
1. in  /etc/fstab, I have a filesystem mount of:
omhz9999:/khoi         /mnt/khoi               glusterfs       _netdev,defaults,backup-volfile-servers=omhz111,fetch-attempts=5         0 0

2. mount -a
3. [2014-12-04 20:40:01.025911] W [glusterfsd.c:1493:parse_cmdline] 0-glusterfs: obsolete option '--volfile-max-fetch-attempts or fetch-attempts' was provided

Actual results:
man mount.glusterfs does not have any examples of this feature.


Expected results:
expecting examples of how to use this feature that was accepted in glusterfs-3.4.2-3

looking over /sbin/mount.glusterfs


I found:
                            ## Place-holder backward compatibility
                            "backupvolfile-server") backupvolfile_server=$value ;;
                            "fetch-attempts") volfile_max_fetch_attempts=$value ;;
                            ## End backward compatibility


So i guess in this version of glusterfs-3.5.3-1 its not ready for it yet.

Need to check why --volfile-max-fetch-attempts has been marked obsolete, and update the documentation to mention its replacement option.

Comment 3 Niels de Vos 2016-06-17 15:56:26 UTC
This bug is getting closed because the 3.5 is marked End-Of-Life. There will be no further updates to this version. Please open a new bug against a version that still receives bugfixes if you are still facing this issue in a more current release.
