Description Kaleb KEITHLEY 2014-09-25 15:51:26 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1146426 +++

Description of problem:
'psmisc' is an optional package, although it is often installed. The regression tests (a sub-package when building from the glusterfs sources) fails to work correctly (many tests failing) when 'killall' is not available.

The NLM implementation also executes 'killall' to stop any 'rpc.statd' processes. Therefore glusterfs-server should depend on 'psmisc' too.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
(any)

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum remove psmisc

Actual results:
The 'killall' command will not be available anymore.

Expected results:
glusterfs-server should depend on 'killall' (or rather the 'psmisc' package).

    glusterfs.spec.in: add psmisc to -server subpackage
    
    apparently some minimalist installs omit psmisc
    needed for the killall in various %pre and %post scriptlets
    
    smarter logic for restarting glusterd in %post server

Comment 4 Niels de Vos 2015-05-17 21:59:48 UTC
GlusterFS 3.7.0 has been released (http://www.gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-users/2015-May/021901.html), and the Gluster project maintains N-2 supported releases. The last two releases before 3.7 are still maintained, at the moment these are 3.6 and 3.5.

This bug has been filed against the 3,4 release, and will not get fixed in a 3.4 version any more. Please verify if newer versions are affected with the reported problem. If that is the case, update the bug with a note, and update the version if you can. In case updating the version is not possible, leave a comment in this bug report with the version you tested, and set the "Need additional information the selected bugs from" below the comment box to "bugs".

If there is no response by the end of the month, this bug will get automatically closed.
