[Gluster-devel] Spurious failure report for master branch - 2015-03-03

Hi,

I had a look at 
tests/bugs/distribute/bug-1117851.t

The test fails at :

EXPECT_WITHIN 75 "done" cat $M0/status_0


The test uses a status file to check if the file rename operation (where a 1000 files are renamed) which runs in the background is over. The status file $M0/status_0 is created before the rename begins and the string "running" is written to it. Once the rename is done, the string "done" is written to the file.

So it turns out the renames are actually finishing well in time - roughly 40 seconds. But the status_0 file is not present so cat fails on the file. The logs for two regression runs that failed confirm this (http://build.gluster.org/job/rackspace-regression-2GB/951/console and http://build.gluster.org/job/rackspace-regression-2GB/983/console). 

cat: /mnt/glusterfs/0/status_0: No such file or directory
[14:53:50] ./tests/bugs/distribute/bug-1117851.t ................................................. 
not ok 15 Got "" instead of "done"
Failed 1/24 subtests

The test runs successfully on my local setup and has failed only twice on the VM Justin provided(out of about 50 runs), so I am still looking into why it cannot find the file.


Regards,
Nithya

Thanks. :)

If you need a VM setup in Rackspace for you to investigate on, it's easy
to do.  Let me know if so. :)
