[Gluster-users] glusterfsd process spinning

[Pranith Kumar Karampuri]

Franco,
    Could you do the following to get more information:

"gluster volume profile <volname> start"

Wait for some time, this will start gathering what operations are coming to all the bricks"
Now execute "gluster volume profile <volname> info" > /file/you/should/reply/to/this/mail/with

Then execute:
gluster volume profile <volname> stop

Lets see if this throws any light on the problem at hand
