Description of problem: The hooks script present for CTDB puts a bad entry in /etc/fstab which causes some systems to hang. I observed this at customer during a POC on an HP SL4540. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): RHS 2.1u2 How reproducible: Not reproducible everywhere. --------------------------------------- The current CTDB hooks script on start adds an entry in /etc/fstab that looks like: hostname.fqdn:/VOLNAME /gluster/lock glusterfs defaults,transport=tcp 0 0 This entry causes some systems to hang. It should be changed to: localhost:/VOLNAME /gluster/lock glusterfs defaults,_netdev 0 0 This works and doesn't cause systems to hang.
This seems to be a duplicate of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1035042
This has been fixed upstream by patch http://review.gluster.org/#/c/7221/. and will be part of next release of Red Hat Storage.
With the fix provided in hook script to add the entry in /etc/fstab as follows hostname:/vol_name /gluster/lock glusterfs _netdev,defaults,transport=tcp 0 0 the system hang is not seen and mount is successful. Verified in glusterfs-server-3.6.0.15-1.el6rhs.x86_64.
