[Gluster-devel] consistent state

[Krishna Srinivas]

Shaofeng,

Regarding the hang when you do "ls", can you see if there is anything in the
logs? how many files are there in that directory? Can you try with the
latest
version of glusterfs and see if it still hangs?

Regarding how it works, I will write in another mail, or update the wiki
doc.

Thanks
Krishna
