I just ran into this as well, and it seems that you have to either reformat previously used gluster bricks or manually tweak some extended attributes.

Maybe this helps you in setting up your gluster volume, Dominic?

Hi Dominic,

Looking at the engine log immediately after trying to create the volume should tell us on which node the gluster volume creation was attempted. Then looking at the vdsm log on that node should help us identifying the exact reason for failure.

In case this doesn't help you, can you please simulate the issue again and send back all the 5 log files? (engine.log from engine server and vdsm.log from the 4 nodes)

Regards,
Shireesh

So I have a problem creating glusterfs volumes.  Here is the install:

  1. Ovirt 3.1
  2. 4 Nodes are Fedora 17 with kernel 3.3.4 - 5.fc17.x86_64
  3. 4 nodes peer joined and running
  4. 4 nodes added as hosts to ovirt
  5. created a directory on each node this path /data
  6. chmod 36.36 -R /data all nodes
  7. went back to ovirt and created a distributed/replicated volume and added the 4 nodes with brick path of /data
I received this error:

Creation of Gluster Volume maingfs1 failed.

I went and looked at the vdsm logs on the nodes and the ovirt server which did not say much.  Where else should I look?  Also this error is vague what does it mean?
