There are some known issues for rdma in 3.5.3, and the patch for to
address those issues are already send to upstream [1]. From the logs,
I'm not sure and it is hard to tell you whether this problem is
something related to rdma transport or not. To make sure that the tcp
transport is works well in this scenario, if possible can you try to
reproduce the same using tcp type volumes. You can change the transport
type of volume by doing the following step ( not recommended in normal
use case).
1) unmount every client
2) stop the volume
3) run gluster volume set volname config.transport tcp
4) start the volume again
5) mount the clients
