[Gluster-users] Files present on the backend but have become invisible from clients

Mon Jun 13 12:28:09 UTC 2011

Hi Pranith.

Sorry - last week was a rough one. Disregard that pastebin - I will put up a new one that makes more sense and repost to the list.

hi James,
     I looked at the pastebin sample, I see that all of the attrs are complete zeros, Could you let me know what is it that I am missing.

Hi Jeff and Gluster users.

Question about inconsistent looking attributes on brick directories on my Gluster backend servers.

http://pastebin.com/b964zMu8

What stands out here is that the two original servers (jc1letgfs17 and 18) only show attributes of 0x000000000000000000000000 for every other pfs-ro1-client-X, while the two servers that were added some time ago show a different pattern (as can be seen in the pastebin sample).

Configuration at end of this message:

 Any hints or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, James
