[Gluster-devel] rm -r problem on FreeBSD port

When rm on file reports that file does not exist, can you check if by any chance the file is a linkto.

Do you by any chance have the log files? If not, if you hit the issue again please do send us the log files.
You can set the log level to DEBUG or TRACE for getting better logs

Looks like one of it is a linkto file and the other is a data file and hence you see files with same name on two
separate bricks. You can easily confirm this, by doing an 'ls -l' on the files in the bricks. For example:
Brick 1:
---------T 2 sabansal sabansal    0 Jan 18 15:48 file1  ---> linkto file
Brick2:
-rw-rw-r-- 2 sabansal sabansal    0 Jan 18 12:54 file1  ---> data file


Just curious, do you have 'lookup-optimize' set on?
