[Gluster-users] Gluster 3.12.14: wrong quota in Distributed Dispersed Volume

Wed Nov 21 15:24:55 UTC 2018

Hi Hari,

I disabled and re-enabled the quota and I saw the crawlers starting. However, this caused a pretty high load on my servers (200+) and this seem to
have gotten them killed again. At least, I have no crawlers running, the quotas are not matching the output of du -h, and the crawler logs all contain
this line:

[2018-11-20 14:16:35.180467] W [glusterfsd.c:1375:cleanup_and_exit] (-->/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0(+0x7494) [0x7f0e3d6fe494] --
>/usr/sbin/glusterfs(glusterfs_sigwaiter+0xf5) [0x561eb7952d45] -->/usr/sbin/glusterfs(cleanup_and_exit+0x54) [0x561eb7952ba4] ) 0-: received signum
(15), shutting down

I suspect this means my file attributes are not set correctly. Would the script you sent me fix that? And the script seems to be part of the Git
GlusterFS 5.0 repo. We are running 3.12. Would it still work on 3.12 (or 4.1, since we'll be upgrading soon) or could it break things?

Kind regards
