[Gluster-users] libgfapi failover problem on replica bricks

Well, as for me, VM-s are not very impacted by healing process. At least
the munin server running with pretty high load (average rarely goes below
0,9 :) )had no problems. To create some more load I've made a copy of 590
MB file on the VM-s disk, It took 22 seconds. Which is ca 27 MB /sec or 214
Mbps/sec

Servers are connected via 10 gbit network. Proxmox client is connected to
the server with separate 1 gbps interface. We are thinking of moving it to
10gbps also.

Here are some heal info which is pretty confusing.

right after 1st server restored it connection, it was pretty clear:

root at stor1:~# gluster volume heal HA-2TB-TT-Proxmox-cluster info
Brick stor1:/exports/HA-2TB-TT-Proxmox-cluster/2TB/
/images/124/vm-124-disk-1.qcow2 - Possibly undergoing heal
Number of entries: 1

Brick stor2:/exports/HA-2TB-TT-Proxmox-cluster/2TB/
/images/124/vm-124-disk-1.qcow2 - Possibly undergoing heal
/images/112/vm-112-disk-1.raw - Possibly undergoing heal
Number of entries: 2


some time later is says
root at stor1:~# gluster volume heal HA-2TB-TT-Proxmox-cluster info
Brick stor1:/exports/HA-2TB-TT-Proxmox-cluster/2TB/
Number of entries: 0

Brick stor2:/exports/HA-2TB-TT-Proxmox-cluster/2TB/
Number of entries: 0

while I can still see traffic between servers and still there was no
messages about healing process completion.
