While glusterd has an infra to allow post install of spec to bring it up in the interim upgrade mode to allow all the volfiles to be regenerated with the latest executable, in container world the same methodology is not followed as container image always point to the specific gluster rpm and gluster rpm doesn't go through an upgrade process. This fix does the following: 1. If glusterd.upgrade file doesn't exist, regenerate the volfiles 2. If maximum-operating-version read from glusterd.upgrade doesn't match with GD_OP_VERSION_MAX, glusterd detects it to be a version where new options are introduced and regenerate the volfiles. Tests done: 1. Bring up glusterd, check if glusterd.upgrade file has been created with GD_OP_VERSION_MAX value. 2. Post 1, restart glusterd and check glusterd hasn't regenerated the volfiles as there's is no change in the GD_OP_VERSION_MAX vs the op_version read from the file. 3. Bump up the GD_OP_VERSION_MAX in the code by 1 and post compilation restart glusterd where the volfiles should be again regenerated. Note: The old way of having volfiles regenerated during an rpm upgrade is kept as it is for now but eventually this can be sunset later.

Gluster
Gluster is a software defined distributed storage that can scale to several petabytes. It provides interfaces for object, block and file storage.
Development
Contributions to gluster in the form of patches and new feature additions can be made by following steps outlined at Developers Guide.
Documentation
The Gluster documentation can be found at Gluster Docs.
Deployment
Quick instructions to build and install can be found in INSTALL file.
Testing
GlusterFS source contains some functional tests under tests/
directory. All
these tests are run against every patch submitted for review. If you want your
patch to be tested, please add a .t
test file as part of your patch submission.
You can also submit a patch to only add a .t
file for the test case you are
aware of.
To run these tests, on your test-machine, just run ./run-tests.sh
. Don't run
this on a machine where you have 'production' glusterfs is running, as it would
blindly kill all gluster processes in each runs.
If you are sending a patch, and want to validate one or few specific tests, then run a single test by running the below command.
bash# /bin/bash ${path_to_gluster}/tests/basic/rpc-coverage.t
You can also use prove
tool if available in your machine, as follows.
bash# prove -vmfe '/bin/bash' ${path_to_gluster}/tests/basic/rpc-coverage.t
