vdsm RPM should have dependency on vdsm-gluster RPM. Otherwise "service vdsmd start" fails.
In theory it should not fail to start without vdsm-gluster rpm. Could you send me vdsm.log on failure?
You can also give me 'service vdsmd start' output on failure.
vdsm without gluster rpm works fine for me. Please add 'rpm -qa | grep vdsm' output here. Well. If I add vdsm-gluster dep to vdsm, it will be cyclic dependency. Either we remove vdsm dependency to vdsm-gluster and add vdsm-gluster dependency to vdsm or leave to the current behaviour ie vdsm-gluster depends on vdsm and you should explicitly install vdsm-gluster by hand.
I think it is ok for user to install vdsm-gluster manually in case of upstream. In downstream, all required packages (including vdsm-gluster) will be installed by default in the RHS2.0 servers, so we will not have any issues. (This is still in the works, and should be available very soon in RHS2.0) Daniel, if you are not able to start vdsmd because of the dependency issue, please provide details requested by Bala.
I think I had a different problem that prevented me from running vdsmd. Closing the bug.
