[Gluster-users] File renaming not geo-replicated

Hi Arnaud,

This is how it supposed to work on any file system including GlusterFS.

root at prod01:/srv/www# touch foo.txt && mv foo.txt bar.txt

Here foo.txt is created and then it is renamed to bar.txt

root at prod01:/srv/www# ls -l foo.txt bar.txt
ls: cannot access 'foo.txt': No such file or directory

-- SO this is correct foo should not exist as it is renamed to bar.
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 0 Dec 10 12:34 bar.txt
