Hello Kate, thank you for your answer. Are you using ext4 or xfs in your VMs? Kind regards, Laszlo On 08.04.2017 14:11, Kate Ward wrote:
I had a similar issue where files were padded out to the length of ceph.dir.layout.stripe_unit (see email entitled "Issue with Ceph padding files out to ceph.dir.layout.stripe_unit size" on this list). I never found a solution, but I can say that I am currently running 10.2.6 and haven't seen the issue so far reappear. 10.2.5 worked as well as best I recall. I realise I'm running the next release after you, and that the circumstances aren't the same, but the patterns of behaviour are similar enough that I wanted to raise awareness. k8 On Sat, Apr 8, 2017 at 6:39 AM Laszlo Budai <laszlo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:laszlo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>> wrote: Hello Peter, Thank you for your answer.

I did an other test when I was calling a sync at the end of the while loop, and in this case the issue did NOT appeared.
