[Gluster-users] gluster 3.4 self-heal

[Ivano Talamo]

Dear all,

we have a replicated volume (2 servers with 1 brick each) on Scientific 
Linux 6.2 with gluster 3.4.
Everything was running fine until we shutdown of of the two and kept it 
down for 2 months.
When it came up again the volume could be healed and we have the 
following symptoms
(call #1 the always-up server, #2 the server that was kept down):

-doing I/O on the volume has very bad performances (impossible to keep 
VM images on it)

-on #1 there's 3997354 files on .glusterfs/indices/xattrop/ and the 
number doesn't go down

-on #1 gluster volume heal vol1 info the first time takes a lot to end 
and doesn't show nothing.
after that it prints "Another transaction is in progress. Please try 
again after sometime."

Furthermore on #1 glusterhd.log is full of messages like this:
[2014-05-27 15:07:44.145326] W

vol1-client-0 (No such file or directory)

On #2 bricks I see some updates, ie. new filenames appearing and 
.glusterfs/indices/xattrop/ is usually empy.

Do you know what's happening? How can we fix this?

thank you,
Ivano
