Yesterday I had a small problem. I have added GlusterFS mount point to the fstab but filesystem wasn’t mounted automatically after I rebooted the operating system (CentOS).
GlusterFS fstab entry:
localhost:/data /var/data glusterfs _netdev 0 0
Quick check revealed that netfs service was disabled at the boot time:
$ chkconfig --list netfs
netfs 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off
The solution to this problem is very trivial – enable netfs service at the boot time:
$ sudo chkconfig --level 3 netfs on
Reboot system or just start netfs service to mount devices requiring network:
$ sudo service netfs start
