^{Originally posted by **centminmod** June 3, 2024} I am testing tests with Ansible 2.14 and Glusterv11.1 for AlmaLinux 9 Extra's repo's CentOS SIG Storage GlusterFSv11 YUM repo and need clarification of the steps outlined at https://docs.gluster.org/en/main/Administrator-Guide/Geo-Replication/#creating-secret-pem-pub-file When i run the command ``` gluster-georep-sshkey generate ``` it creates the file at `/var/lib/glusterd/geo-replication/common_secret.pem.pub` > strace gluster-georep-sshkey generate 2>&1 | grep '.pub' openat(AT_FDCWD, "/var/lib/glusterd/geo-replication/common_secret.pem.pub", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) = 3 But from https://docs.gluster.org/en/main/Administrator-Guide/Geo-Replication/#post-creation-steps when I run command it complains about not finding `/home/geoaccount/common_secret.pem.pub` ``` /usr/libexec/glusterfs/set_geo_rep_pem_keys.sh geoaccount \ gvol-primary gvol-secondary ``` it complains > "/usr/libexec/glusterfs/set_geo_rep_pem_keys.sh geoaccount datavol datavol", "delta": "0:00:01.116258", "end": "2024-06-02 21:40:06.317151", "msg": "non-zero return code", "rc": 1, "start": "2024-06-02 21:40:05.200893", "stderr": "", "stderr_lines": [], "stdout": "/home/geoaccount/common_secret.pem.pub not present. running `set_geo_rep_pem_keys.sh` is expecting the file to be at `/home/geoaccount/common_secret.pem.pub` ``` [root@almalinux9vm1 ~]# /usr/libexec/glusterfs/set_geo_rep_pem_keys.sh geoaccount datavol datavol /home/geoaccount/common_secret.pem.pub not present.
