[Gluster-users] Gluster 2.0.2 locking up issues

[Daniel Jordan Bambach]

I'm experiencing various locking up issues ranging from Gluster  
locking up ( 'ls'ing the mount hangs ), to the whole machine locking  
up under load.

My current config is below (two servers, afring)

I would love to be able to get to the bottom of this, because it seems  
very strange that we should see erratic behaviour on such a simple  
setup.

There is approx 12Gb of files, and to stress test (and heal) i run ls - 
alR on the mount. This will run for a while and eventually lock up  
Gluster, and occasionally the machine. I have found that in some cases  
killing Gluster and re-mounting does not solve the problem (in that  
perhaps both servers have entered a locked state in some way).

Im finding it very hard to collect and debug information of any use,  
as there is no crashlog, no errors in the volume log.
Can anyone suggest what I migth be able to do to extract more  
information as to what is occuring at lock-up time?
