            Bug ID: 1228731
           Summary: nfs-ganesha: rmdir logs "remote operation failed:
                    Stale file handle" even though the operation is
                    successful
           Product: GlusterFS
           Version: mainline
         Component: protocol
          Severity: medium
          Priority: high

Description of problem:
Even though the operation like rmdir is successfully deleting the directory in
consideration the gfapi.log gets updated by logs such as 
"remote operation failed: Stale file handle"

This is a spurious log, doesn't seem to be giving any meaning to any one.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
glusterfs-3.7.0-2.el6rhs.x86_64
nfs-ganesha-2.2.0-0.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a volume of type 6x2, start it
2. bring up nfs-ganesha, after completing the pre-requisites
3. mount the volume with vers=4 or vers=3
4. create a dir and rmdir the same dir

Actual results:
step4 is successful
but gfapi.log reports

^C


Expected results:
logs should be meaning ful, it should match the operation that it is doing,
present logs give a wrong impression of the system

Additional info:


--- Additional comment from Niels de Vos on 2015-06-05 14:27:31 CEST ---

Need to investigate if logging at Warning is suitable, maybe this should be
marked as Debug instead.

Ganesha does remove first, and then stats the file-handle to update the
attributes (like hard-link count). The stale file handle is expected in this
case.
