[Gluster-users] Sync data

[shwetha]

1.

Option: cluster.read-subvolume
Default Value: (null)
Description: inode-read fops happen only on one of the bricks in 
replicate. Afr will prefer the one specified using this option if it is 
not stale. Option value must be one of the xlator names of the children. 
Ex: <volname>-client-0 till <volname>-client-<number-of-bricks - 1>

For any volume option information execute "gluster volume set help"

2. " find . " will get fetch all the directories entries of the mount. 
When we execute stat on each of file and directory it gets the stat 
structure of the file.

In your case we set the "cluster.read-subvolume" to node-1 is because 
node-1 has all the data and the read has to happen from node-1 so that 
1) GFID is assigned to the file/directory ( since your files/directories 
were created from backend and doesn't have any GFID's yet ) 2) when stat 
is performed on the file/directory the file/directory is self-healed to 
node-2.

When you use "cluster.read-subvolume"  all reads will be going to node-1 
. Hence suggested to you reset this option as soon as the self-heal of 
data is complete.
