[Gluster-users] Gluster double creating files

[Will Rouesnel]

I'm using gluster on a single server machine to unify an array of storage
disks (7 all up) running the glusterfs-1.3.9 package from the public domain.
I'm having a persistent problem where for no obviously discernible reason it
will occasionally double create files on two of the bricks and then of
course the unify translater denies access to them.
 
I'm using the ALU scheduler with the disk-usage prgoram set to update after
every file copy (the server tends to have multi-gig files copied to it
routinely).
 
When I check the logs they tend to be full of entries like this after I've
been copying files around (My namespace brick is just a folder mounted on
the main linux file system):

Is there a known solution or patch for this issue yet? I've managed to find
reference on the mailing list to only one other instance, but I can't
believe many other users of gluster are somehow not noticing the issue?
