[Gluster-devel] Need help with https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1224180

[Xavier Hernandez]

Hi Sanoj,

I'm unable to see bug 1224180. Access is restricted.

Not sure what is the problem exactly, but I see that quota is involved. 
Currently disperse doesn't play well with quota when the limit is near.

The reason is that not all bricks fail at the same time with EDQUOT due 
to small differences is computed space. This causes a valid write to 
succeed on some bricks and fail on others. If it fails simultaneously on 
more than redundancy bricks but less that the number of data bricks, 
there's no way to rollback the changes on the bricks that have 
succeeded, so the operation is inconsistent and an I/O error is returned.

For example, on a 6:2 configuration (4 data bricks and 2 redundancy), if 
3 bricks succeed and 3 fail, there are not enough bricks with the 
updated version, but there aren't enough bricks with the old version either.

If you force 2 bricks to be down, the problem can appear more frequently 
as only a single failure causes this problem.
