Description Shehjar Tikoo 2009-07-14 07:50:06 UTC 
The problem is in fuse-bridge. booster needs to register the GlusterFS mount point with libglusterfsclient as  VMP. For that, booster needs the mount point path. It tries to get this through the user.glusterfs-booster-mount xattr, support for which hasnt been added in fuse-bridge.
Comment 1 Shehjar Tikoo 2009-07-14 10:40:40 UTC 
booster is not redirecting the any operations that are performed on a GlusterFS mount point into libglusterfsclient as is required when opening a file through the mount point bypass approach.

All operations still go through the mount point.

Problem has been observed in 2.0.3 but also seen on mainline.
