<div>Hi Susant,<br>
<br>
</div>
I have installed Glusterfs in 2 machines which I
want to use for establishing cluster. I am using
CentOs 6.6. The gluster volume is set up and running
fine. I am manually creating the files onto the
mounted volume and they are replicating..<br>
<br>
</div>
So far looks like everything is working. Now I have
configured a shared ip address for reaching the
replicated volume by using the following command:<br>
<br>
<div style="font-size:12px!important;line-height:15px!important">
<div><span>gluster </span><span>volume </span><span>set</span><span> </span><span>[</span><span>VOLUME</span><span>]</span><span> </span><span>auth</span><span>.</span><span>allow</span><span> </span><span>[</span><span>IP </span><span>ADDRESS</span><span>]</span></div>
</div>
<br>
</div>
This IP address is visible to me under "gluster volume
info", but I am unable to ping this ip address. I am
getting the message that "Host is unreachable"<br>
<br>
</div>
I need this ip address reachable so that I can connect my
application which needs to use this shared ip to connect
to cluster.<br>
<br>
</div>
This application is a little urgent for me. I would really
appreciate your help..<br>
<br>
</div>
Thanks<br>
</div>

Hi,<br>
<br>
That command is just setting an acl for that IP to connect to the
gluster daemon.<br>
<br>
Normally you don't need to add any IP addresses as glusterfs clients
will know about both servers as soon as they connect to one of them.
If you're using Samba or NFS the preferred option is to use CTDB to
spread a pool of virtual IP addresses over the servers.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
<br>
Alex<br>
