[Gluster-users] In a replica 2 server, file-updates on one server missing on the other server #Personal#

Hi Pranith,

Yes, the very same (chalcogen_eg_oxygen at yahoo.com). Justin Clift sent me a 
mail a while back telling me that it is better if we all use our business 
email addresses so I made me a new profile. 

Glusterfs complains about /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_reserved_ports 
because we use a really old Linux kernel (2.6.34) wherein this feature is 
not present. We plan to upgrade our Linux so often but each time we are 
dissuaded from it by some compatibility issue or the other. So, we get 
this log every time - on both good volumes and bad ones. What bothered me 
was this (on serv1):

When I write on the good server (serv1), we see that an RPC request is 
sent to both client-0 and client-1. While, when I write on the bad server 
(serv0), the RPC request is sent only to client-0, which is why it is no 
wonder that the writes are not synced over to serv1. Somehow I could not 
make the daemon on serv0 understand that there are two up-children and not 
just one. 

One additional detail - since we are using a kernel that's too old, we do 
not have the (Anand Avati's?) FUse readdirplus patches, either. I've 
noticed that the fixes in the readdirplus version of glusterfs aren't 
always guaranteed to be present on the non-readdirplus version of the 
patches. I'd filed a bug around one such anomaly back, but never got 
around to writing a patch for it (sorry!) Here it is: 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1062287

Maybe something on similar lines here?

Thanks,
Anirban

P.s. Please ignore the #Personal# in the subject line - we need to do that 
to push mails to the public domain past the email filter safely.

hi,

Hello, 

I am using the following replicated volume: 

root at serv0:~> gluster v info replicated_vol 

Volume Name: replicated_vol 
Type: Replicate 
Volume ID: 26d111e3-7e4c-479e-9355-91635ab7f1c2 
Status: Started 
Number of Bricks: 1 x 2 = 2 
Transport-type: tcp 
Bricks: 
Brick1: serv0:/mnt/bricks/replicated_vol/brick 
Brick2: serv1:/mnt/bricks/replicated_vol/brick 
Options Reconfigured:

nfs.enable-ino32: on 
cluster.self-heal-daemon: on 
nfs.disable: off 

replicated_vol is mounted at /mnt/replicated_vol on both serv0 and serv1. 
If I do the following on serv0: 

root at serv0:~>echo "cranberries" > /mnt/replicated_vol/testfile 
root at serv0:~>echo "tangerines" >> /mnt/replicated_vol/testfile 

And then I check for the state of the replicas in the bricks, then I find 
that 

root at serv0:~>cat /mnt/bricks/replicated_vol/brick/testfile 
cranberries 
tangerines 
root at serv0:~> 

root at serv1:~>cat /mnt/bricks/replicated_vol/brick/testfile 
root at serv1:~> 

As may be seen, the replica on serv1 is blank, when I write into testfile 
from serv0 (even though the file is created on both bricks). 
Interestingly, if I write something to the file at serv1, then the two 
replicas become identical. 

root at serv1:~>echo "artichokes" >> /mnt/replicated_vol/testfile 

root at serv1:~>cat /mnt/bricks/replicated_vol/brick/testfile 
cranberries 
tangerines 
artichokes 
root at serv1:~> 

root at serv0:~>cat /mnt/bricks/replicated_vol/brick/testfile 
cranberries 
tangerines 
artichokes 
root at serv0:~> 

So, I dabbled into the logs a little bit, after upping the diagnostic 
level, and this is what I saw: 

When I write on serv0 (bad case):

We see that when you write on serv1, the RPC request is sent to both 
replicated_vol-client-0 and replicated_vol-client-1, while when we write 
on serv0, the request is sent only to replicated_vol-client-0, and the 
FUse client is unaware of the presence of client-1 in the latter case. 

I checked a bit more in the logs. When I turn on my trace, I found many 
instances of these logs on serv0 but NOT on serv1:

I guess reboot of the machine fixed it. Wonder why it was not found in the 
first place.

I could not find a 'remote-port' option in /var/lib/glusterd on either 
peer. Could somebody tell me where this configuration is looked up from? 
Also, sometime later, I rebooted serv0 and that seemed to solve the 
problem. However, stop+start of replicated_vol and restart of 
/etc/init.d/glusterd did NOT solve the problem. 
Ignore that log. If no port is given in that volfile, it picks 24007 as 
the port, which is the default port where glusterd 'listens'


Any help on this matter will be greatly appreciated as I need to provide 
robustness assurances for our setup. 

Thanks a lot,
