[Gluster-devel] GlusterFS Volume Failure

Tue Jun 1 08:51:54 UTC 2010

The engineering team will need some details - 

Gluster version? 
OS details for the clients and servers. 
Hardware details for the clients and servers 
Client volume file. 
Why was 10.1.1.2 already down, how was it brought down? 

Also, this type of question will probably get a better response on the gluster-users list, could you subscribe there and repost your email with the details I've asked for? You can subscribe to Gluster-users here - http://gluster.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users . 

Thanks, 

Craig

Subject: [Gluster-devel] GlusterFS Volume Failure 

Hi, 

Last night, we got some troubles with a GlusterFS mount. It's a replicate volume, and the 10.1.1.2 host was already down. The volume files weren't readable until I manually restarted the GlusterFS instance. 
We'd like to understand what happened on this volume. Especially the "Server 10.1.1.1:6996 has not responded in the last 42 seconds, disconnecting." message. I can't figure out why the GlusterFS instance couldn't talk to itself. 
Please help us. 

This log is from 10.1.1.1 itself :
