[Gluster-users] Gluster 3.3.0 and VMware ESXi 5

[Simon Blackstein]

Honestly, I've been trying to reset this volume completely to see if the
error was transitional but now getting the '/gfs or a prefix of it is
already part of a volume' message even after removing the attributes from
the directory... lots of changes in this version to watch out for :(

setfattr -x trusted.gfid /gfs

setfattr -x trusted.glusterfs.volume-id /gfs

setfattr -x trusted.afr.gfs-vdi-client-0 /gfs

setfattr -x trusted.afr.gfs-vdi-client-1 /gfs

setfattr -x trusted.glusterfs.dht /gfs

Many Rgds,

Simon
