[Gluster-users] self-heal not working

Tue Aug 22 14:10:53 UTC 2017

Yes, I have indeed a small test cluster with 3 Raspberry Pis but unfortunately I have other issues with that one.

So I tried the "volume start force" which restarted glustershd on every nodes but nothing changed and running the heal does not do anything, there is still that one single file to be healed.

Finally I would like to use your last suggestion to increase client-log-level to DEBUG. In order to do that would the following command be correct?

gluster volume set myvolume diagnostics.client-log-level DEBUG
