Per https://forge.gluster.org/hadoop/pages/Fedora19WithGluster There is presently a bug in FUSE which causes namespace consistency issues in GlusterFS. We have submitted an upstream patch and are working to ensure that future versions of the Linux Kernel will include it automatically. In the interim, we have provided a workaround for RHEL 6.2 and Fedora 19 RHEL 6 – Download the two RPMs required, here and here Fedora 19 – Download the two RPMs required here and here Just nothing for F19 in meantime. May I ask for any time estimates patch to merge main line linux ( fedora kernel) or any other workaround for ongoing issue ? Thanks Boris Derzhavets
