sqlplus failing when running from Gluster mountpoint

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

When running using a shared filesystem that is coming from a NAS (Sun ZFS storage) it works without problem.

There is also no problem, when the FS is on a local LV.

# mount Sun:/export/appropriate /user/oracle/shared
# df -hT /user/oracle/shared
Filesystem                                 Type  Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
Sun:/export/appropriate nfs4  250G   80G  171G  32% /user/oracle/shared
# /user/oracle/shared/.../bin/sqlplus user/password

However, when using a share volume that is coming from the Red Hat Gluster Storage, it does not work:

# umount /user/oracle/shared
# mount node:/qa_shared /user/oracle/shared
# df -hT /user/oracle/shared
