same with rm:
root@halt:/home/krishna/volfiles# rm /mnt/glusterfs/asd
rm: cannot remove `/mnt/glusterfs/asd': No such file or directory

do:

export LD_PRELOAD=/opt/glusterfs/lib/glusterfs/glusterfs-booster.so

root@halt:/home/krishna/volfiles# ls

Comment 2 Shehjar Tikoo 2009-10-16 04:30:37 UTC 
The problem has most probably got to do with exporting the GLUSTERFS_BOOSTER_FSTAB
variable globally and running the ls for a non-booster directory.

i.e. Do not expect generic commands to work with booster while not using an absolute path. This is most probably being caused because ls -l opens "." as the path.

Will look into this on a low priority basis as getting general core-utils to work with booster is not a priority task right now.
