Hi Steve,
Also, do you have any plans to upgrade to the latest version. With 3.7,
we have re factored some approaches used in quota and marker and that have
fixed quite some issues.

Hi Steve,
Could you send us the glusterfs logs, it could help us debug the issue!!

Something is seriously wrong with the quota output:
# gluster volume quota storage list

Available Soft-limit exceeded? Hard-limit exceeded?

Gluster is listing 'Used' space of over 307TB on /data4/climate, but
the volume capacity is only 146T.
This has happened after disabling quotas on the volume, re-enabling
quotas, and then setting quotas again. There was a lot of glusterfsd
CPU usage afterwards, and now 3 days later the quota's I set were all
missing except
/data4/projects|800.0GB|2.0TB|0Bytes
So I re-set the quotas and the output above is what I have.
Previous to disabling quota's this was the output:
# gluster volume quota storage list
Path Hard-limit Soft-limit Used
Available Soft-limit exceeded? Hard-limit exceeded?

I was so focused on the /projects-CanSISE quota not being accurate
that I missed that the 'Used' space on /data4/climate is listed higher
then the total gluster volume capacity.
