[Gluster-users] I/O error on replicated volume

Joe,
Hmmm.... But every 3 seconds for all eternity? Seems a bit much for a "warning", doesn't it?
Did you see my last reply? My nfs-server.vol file seems to indicate that RDMA is still in use in some capacity... Is this normal? If not, how can I reconcile this?
Thanks.
Regards,
Jon Heese

The RDMA warnings are not relevant if you don't use RDMA. It's simply pointing out that it tried to register and it couldn't, which would be expected if your system doesn't support it.

Mohamed,
I have completed the steps you suggested (unmount all, stop the volume, set the config.transport to tcp, start the volume, mount, etc.), and the behavior has indeed changed.

I am no longer seeing the I/O errors during prolonged periods of write I/O that I was seeing when the transport was set to rdma. However, I am seeing this message on both nodes every 3 seconds (almost exactly):

Is this something to worry about?
If you are not using nfs to export the volumes, there is nothing to worry.
I'm using the native glusterfs FUSE component to mount the volume locally on both servers -- I assume that you're referring to the standard NFS protocol stuff, which I'm not using here.
Incidentally, I would like to keep my logs from filling up with junk if possible. Is there something I can do to get rid of these (useless?) error messages?
If i understand correctly, you are getting this enormous log message from nfs log only, all other logs and everything are fine now, right ? If that is the case, and you are not at all using nfs for exporting the volume, as a workaround you can disable nfs for your volume or cluster. (gluster v set nfs.disable on). This will turnoff your gluster nfs server, and you will no longer get those log messages.
Any idea why there are rdma pieces in play when I've set my transport to tcp?
there should not be any piece of rdma,if possible, can you paste the volfile for nfs server. You can find the volfile in /var/lib/glusterd/nfs/nfs-server.vol or /usr/local/var/lib/glusterd/nfs/nfs-server.vol
I will get this for you when I can. Thanks.
If you can make it, that will be great help to understand the problem.

The actual I/O appears to be handled properly and I've seen no further errors in the testing I've done so far.
Thanks.

Hello all,
Does anyone else have any further suggestions for troubleshooting this?
To sum up: I have a 2 node 2 brick replicated volume, which holds a handful of iSCSI image files which are mounted and served up by tgtd (CentOS 6) to a handful of devices on a dedicated iSCSI network. The most important iSCSI clients (initiators) are four VMware ESXi 5.5 hosts that use the iSCSI volumes as backing for their datastores for virtual machine storage.
After a few minutes of sustained writing to the volume, I am seeing a massive flood (over 1500 per second at times) of this error in /var/log/glusterfs/mnt-gluster-disk.log:
[2015-03-16 02:24:07.582801] W [fuse-bridge.c:2242:fuse_writev_cbk] 0-glusterfs-fuse: 635358: WRITE => -1 (Input/output error)
When this happens, the ESXi box fails its write operation and returns an error to the effect of “Unable to write data to datastore”. I don’t see anything else in the supporting logs to explain the root cause of the i/o errors.
Any and all suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.
>From the mount logs, i assume that your volume transport type is rdma. There are some known issues for rdma in 3.5.3, and the patch for to address those issues are already send to upstream [1]. From the logs, I'm not sure and it is hard to tell you whether this problem is something related to rdma transport or not. To make sure that the tcp transport is works well in this scenario, if possible can you try to reproduce the same using tcp type volumes. You can change the transport type of volume by doing the following step ( not recommended in normal use case).
1) unmount every client
2) stop the volume
3) run gluster volume set volname config.transport tcp
4) start the volume again
5) mount the clients

Ravi,
The last lines in the mount log before the massive vomit of I/O errors are from 22 minutes prior, and seem innocuous to me:

Hello,
So I resolved my previous issue with split-brains and the lack of self-healing by dropping my installed glusterfs* packages from 3.6.2 to 3.5.3, but now I've picked up a new issue, which actually makes normal use of the volume practically impossible.
A little background for those not already paying close attention:
I have a 2 node 2 brick replicating volume whose purpose in life is to hold iSCSI target files, primarily for use to provide datastores to a VMware ESXi cluster. The plan is to put a handful of image files on the Gluster volume, mount them locally on both Gluster nodes, and run tgtd on both, pointed to the image files on the mounted gluster volume. Then the ESXi boxes will use multipath (active/passive) iSCSI to connect to the nodes, with automatic failover in case of planned or unplanned downtime of the Gluster nodes.
In my most recent round of testing with 3.5.3, I'm seeing a massive failure to write data to the volume after about 5-10 minutes, so I've simplified the scenario a bit (to minimize the variables) to: both Gluster nodes up, only one node (duke) mounted and running tgtd, and just regular (single path) iSCSI from a single ESXi server.
About 5-10 minutes into migration a VM onto the test datastore, /var/log/messages on duke gets blasted with a ton of messages exactly like this:
Mar 15 22:24:06 duke tgtd: bs_rdwr_request(180) io error 0x1781e00 2a -1 512 22971904, Input/output error
And /var/log/glusterfs/mnt-gluster_disk.log gets blased with a ton of messages exactly like this:
[2015-03-16 02:24:07.572279] W [fuse-bridge.c:2242:fuse_writev_cbk] 0-glusterfs-fuse: 635299: WRITE => -1 (Input/output error)
Are there any messages in the mount log from AFR about split-brain just before the above line appears?
Does `gluster v heal <VOLNAME> info` show any files? Performing I/O on files that are in split-brain fail with EIO.
-Ravi
And the write operation from VMware's side fails as soon as these messages start.
I don't see any other errors (in the log files I know of) indicating the root cause of these i/o errors. I'm sure that this is not enough information to tell what's going on, but can anyone help me figure out what to look at next to figure this out?
I've also considered using Dan Lambright's libgfapi gluster module for tgtd (or something similar) to avoid going through FUSE, but I'm not sure whether that would be irrelevant to this problem, since I'm not 100% sure if it lies in FUSE or elsewhere.
Thanks!
