It's noting that complicated...
one mount one process that sticks around. I am using ib-verbs btw.

depends on whether you passed a mountpoint in the command line

after you unmounted? or did you mean that before unmounting there
were two [glusterfs] and after unmounting there is just one (which
would be the server) ?

if I my add my 2 cents: as I reported in an earlier posting, it is possible to mount the same mount-point several times, which results in serveral glusterfs processes running. in such a case, you need to kill all of them or umount several times.

of course, it would be best to prevent a second mount of a already mounted gluster share (someone posted a recipe on how one could to this; may this should be patched into the sources?).

Ah I see! I have an additional comment/question though.

I've noticed that when I unmount a gluster volume on a client the
[glusterfs] process is still running.  Perhaps it thinks my cleint
spec is a server.
I have no instance of "type protocol/server" in the client spec.
What does it use to determine weather it's a client or a server?

Mickey,
 in the latest codebase, there are no more server and client
programs. there is just one glusterfs (and glusterfsd is a
symlink to glusterfs). it behaves either as a client or server
according to the volume spec file given.

 if the glusterfs program is passed a mountpoint it attaches a
fuse translator in a hardcoded way, so this preserves backward
compatibility. The new model also allows both protocol/server and
mount/fuse (mountability) in the same spec file which can be a
performance improvement in NUFA mode of operations.

    This is very minor but it did break a kill script I wrote.

    When I run the latest build, the server daemon shows up as:
    [glusterfs]
    in the process list.

    Just an FYI :-)
    Thanks!
