[Gluster-users] Help with some socket related logwarnings

(Re-sending with correct subject - sorry)

Hello Carl and list members,

My etc-glusterfs-glusterd.vol.log files are also flooded with warning 
messages like the following.

bdan4: [2012-01-05 18:54:30.385095] W 
[socket.c:1494:__socket_proto_state_machine] 0-socket.management: 
reading from socket failed. Error (Transport endpoint is not connected), 
peer (192.171.166.72:993)

Some of the "peers" mentioned are actually clients but others are 
GlusterFS servers.  The warnings seem to occur repeatedly for a period 
of time on all the servers and then stop for a while before starting 
again.  I have a feeling it has something to do with NFS, because it 
seems to occur more frequently on servers I use to export NFS (although 
all are running the glusterfs NFS process).  The warnings seem to 
coincide with the NFS processes restarting, as they did on all the 
servers in my cluster at 16:48 today, un-noticed by me, for no apparent 
reason.  The warnings stopped on most servers soon after this, but they 
have carried on since then on the servers that are exporting NFS.

I have been ignoring these warnings for some time because there didn't 
seem to be any adverse effects, but I am trying to solve a serious 
performance problem affecting some applications and I want to look at 
all possible causes for concern.  I have seen these warnings in log 
files posted to the list in the context of various problems which I 
don't have, but I have never seen them mentioned specifically.  Are 
these spurious warnings that can be ignored or do they point to a 
problem with my cluster?  Any comments or suggestions would be much 
appreciated.

Regards
Dan.
