[Gluster-users] Self-healing not healing 27k files on GlusterFS 4.1.5 3 nodes replica

Thu Nov 8 04:00:17 UTC 2018

Can you share the getfattr output of all 4 entries from all 3 bricks?

Also, can you tailf glustershd.log on all nodes and see if anything is 
logged for these entries when you run 'gluster volume heal $volname'?

Regards,

Ravi

After that reboot all locks got released and there are no more files left to heal on that volume. So the reboot of node2 did the trick (but this still seems to be a bug).
