[Gluster-users] parallel-readdir prevents directories and files listing - Bug 1670382

[João Baúto]

Hi,

I have an 8 brick distributed volume where Windows and Linux clients mount
the volume via samba and headless compute servers using gluster native
fuse. With parallel-readdir on, if a Windows client creates a new folder,
the folder is indeed created but invisible to the Windows client. Accessing
the same samba share in a Linux client, the folder is again visible and
with normal behavior. The same folder is also visible when mounting via
gluster native fuse.

The Windows client can list existing directories and rename them while, for
files, everything seems to be working fine.

Gluster servers: CentOS 7.5 with Gluster 5.3 and Samba 4.8.3-4.el7.0.1 from
@fasttrack
Clients tested: Windows 10, Ubuntu 18.10, CentOS 7.5
