Some issues that have cropped up since gluster was installed. (1) Slow PE model. The speed with which the PE model can write netCDF files to /gdata/... is catastrophically slow. Still trying to isolate problem. See: pe_timing_results.txt (2) The read privileges have been apparently lost for some files. This does not necessarily appear this way on "ls" (3) Intermittent general slowness of mseas (e.g. 30-60s before any response from "ls"). For examples look in GenSlow subdirectory. (have seen significant swap usage on mseas-data) (4) Intermittent failure of SGE jobs to start on compute nodes.
