As I said before, it works fine in FC and I only experience this issue
in RHEL 5.2. This is why I am asking for someone using exactly RHEL 5.2
and glusterfs. Something close enough is not enough. FC is close enough
as well and it works.
Can you post a 'fresh' log of the client? I mean, just before rebooting, truncate the client log file so that the log file has the exclusive entries which happen during the time of booting. I suspect it is network related (network interfaces or gateways not being set at the time of mounting) -- which would be revealed from the request log file.
thanks,
Avati
