[Gluster-users] Server outage, file sync/self-heal doesn't sync ALL files?!

Hi all!

After the start of pserver12 I ran the getfattr command on all 4 systems in
order to check which files were out of sync. This came back with 63 files on
pserver12 and none on the others. After starting the gluster server and
client daemons on 12, the first batch was done automagically, as stated
before. But not all of them as II would have expected.

Best, Martin
