This works: option volume-filename.glusterfs-a /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs-client.vol
This does not: option volume-filename.glusterfs /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs-client.vol
When I use the second line, I get errors on the client about the config file changing. Any idea what might be causing this? I am using the latest 2.0git as of August 10.
Also while looking through the code, I noticed that sometimes you guys use dict_get_str() and sometimes you use dict_get() followed up by a gf_string2*(). Is there a preferred/more efficient method or does it not matter? After writing this, I see that in the case I am looking at (server_protocol.c line 7676), it's a dict_get followed by a gf_string2bool(). Is there a reason that dict_get_bool() does not exist? Another thing I noticed is that in those same places there are tests to see if the calls fail, which they can only do in case if a bad config file (right?), but the config file is checked for correctness by upon loading. That would make those checks unnecessary, correct?
These questions are not meant to be critical; I am new to reading (and modifying!) code and am unfamiliar with best-practices.
