Important steps:
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
Make sure that there is no previous installation of MacFUSE exists in the
|
|
system. Run,
|
|
|
|
bash# sudo /Library/Filesystems/fusefs.fs/Support/uninstall-macfuse-core.sh
|
|
|
|
After this, install MacFUSE (mostly through .dmg available in macfuse homepage
|
|
or if Gluster Inc provides any custom built .dmg)
|
|
|
|
Make sure the .dmg of glusterfs is built against the installed MacFUSE version
|
|
(if not, any operations over mountpoint gives EIO ie, Input/Output Error). If
|
|
glusterfs tarball is used then compile it only after the MacFUSE installation
|
|
is complete.
|
|
|
|
To make an entry in /etc/fstab for glusterfs mount, use 'vifs' command
|
|
|
|
bash# sudo vifs
|
|
|
|
after the entry is added in /etc/fstab, it can be mounted by 'mount' command.
|
|
|
|
To start the server process one can use the 'launchd' mechanism. Follow below
|
|
steps after installation
|
|
|
|
bash# launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.gluster.glusterfs.plist
|
|
|
|
No need to run the command if the machine reboots, as it will be loaded
|
|
automatically by launchd process.
|
|
|
|
Now copy the server volume file in the proper path
|
|
|
|
bash# sudo vi /opt/local/etc/glusterfs/server.vol
|
|
|
|
NOTE: (If glusterfs is installed in different path other than '/opt/local'
|
|
update the volume file at the corresponding path, and also need to
|
|
update the /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.gluster.glusterfs.plist with
|
|
the proper path)
|
|
|
|
Once the volume file is updated, administrator can start the server process by
|
|
running,
|
|
|
|
bash# launchctl start com.gluster.glusterfs
|
|
|
|
and stop like
|
|
|
|
bash# launchctl stop com.gluster.glusterfs
|
|
|
|
NOTE: To start the process by default when the loaded, one need to add the
|
|
following lines to .plist file
|
|
-----
|
|
<key>KeepAlive</key>
|
|
<true/>
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install using .dmg in Terminal
|
|
=================================
|
|
|
|
bash# hdiutil attach <package>.dmg
|
|
bash# cd /Volumes/<package>/
|
|
bash# installer -pkg <package>.pkg -installer /
|
|
bash# cd
|
|
bash# hdiutil detach /Volumes/<package>/
