At some point in the past, the on-disk object size got out of sync with the metadata. When we've seen this, its usually been due to crashes and journal replay issues (not btrfs!), although there have been many other fixes in the argonaut -> bobtail timeframe that may have caused this. Is this the first scrub in a while? Or was the cluster doing a lot of recovery/rebalancing recently? It sounds like this happened long ago but was just now noticed. Usually a bug triggers on one copy, and then the change get propagated to the others during recovery. If there was recent activity, it may be a problem that is still present... In any case, the simplest way to repair is to truncate --size 4194304 <filename> on all of the replicas. sage > > -- > Wido den Hollander > 42on B.V. > > Phone: +31 (0)20 700 9902 > Skype: contact42on > _______________________________________________ > ceph-users mailing list > ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com > > _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
