[Gluster-users] Re-Sync Geo Replication

[James Payne]

Hi,

 

Just wondering if there was a method to manually force a re-sync of a geo
replication slave so it is an identical mirror of the master? 

 

History of this request is that I have a test setup and the Gluster
Geo-Replication seems to have missed 7 files out completely (not sure if
this was a bug or an issue with my setup specifically as this is a test
setup it has been setup and torn down a few times). Now though the Geo
replica will not converge to be the same, ie. It's stable, new files add
fine and files will delete, but the missing files just don't seem to be
interested in synchronising! I'm guessing that as the rsync is triggered by
the change log and as these files aren't changing it won't ever notice them
again? I can manually copy the files (there are only 7 after all.) but I
have only found them through a consistency checking script I wrote. I can
run this through a cron to pick up any missing files, however I wondered if
Gluster had something built in which did a check and sync? Also, If I did
manually copy these files across how would that affect the consistency of
the geo replica session?

 

Running: GlusterFS 3.4.5 on CentOS 6.5

 

Regards

James
