These numbers are from <br> the volume heal info summary command. They have stayed constant for two <br> days now. I've read the gluster docs and many more. The Gluster docs <br> just give some commands and non gluster docs basically repeat that. <br> Given that it appears no self-healing is going on for my volume I am <br> confused as to why.<br> <br> 1. If a self-heal deamon is listed on a host (all of mine show one with <br> a volume status command) can I assume it's enabled and running?<br> <br> 2. I assume the volume that has all the self-heals pending has some <br> serious issues even though I can access the files and directories on <br> it. If self-heal is running shouldn't the numbers be decreasing?<br> <br> It appears to me self-heal is not working properly so how to I get it to <br> start working or should I delete the volume and start over?<br> <br> I'm running gluster 5.2 on Centos 7 latest and updated.<br> <br> Thank you.<br> <br> <br> _______________________________________________<br> Gluster-users mailing list<br> <a href="mailto:Gluster-users@gluster.org" target="_blank" data-mce-href="mailto:Gluster-users@gluster.org">Gluster-users@gluster.org</a><br> <a href="https://lists.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://lists.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users">https://lists.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users</a><br data-mce-bogus="1"></blockquote></div></blockquote><br>_______________________________________________<br>Gluster-users mailing list<br>Gluster-users@gluster.org<br>https://lists.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users</div><div><br></div></div></body></html>
