Marcus - 
The extended attributes on the files will be different between the two servers. Depending on the version of rsync you are running it may be reporting differences because of the attributes. Can you md5sum on both servers a couple of the files rsync is telling you are out-of-sync? If there isn't a difference in the md5sum values you are good to go. Otherwise please let us know. 



Thanks, 

Craig

Subject: [Gluster-users] Resync failure 

I'm running a very simple 2-way gluster 3.0.5 on ext3 with cluster/replicate (as generated by volgen) on 32-bit Ubuntu. I noticed that one of my gluster servers had been down for a while, so I fixed it and brought it back up. I wanted to be sure that all its content was in sync so I issued an ls -lR on the mounted volume, then used rsync to compare (but not touch) the backing file systems. There are hundreds of differences listed. What's the best way of manually repairing it, and why didn't it fix itself? Can I stop all servers, do an rsync and then restart?
