This should be irrelevant. pg_files is the version that tells you what existing files may have holes in them from lost data. It does this by walking through the tree and does depend on the MDS. So yeah, this is a bug. It shouldn't be hard to fix for anybody who spends a bit of time looking at the code, so feel free to do that and file a PR, or generate a tracker! :) -Greg > > -- > Patrick Donnelly, Ph.D. > He / Him / His > Principal Software Engineer > Red Hat, Inc. > GPG: 19F28A586F808C2402351B93C3301A3E258DD79D > > _______________________________________________ > ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx > To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx > _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list -- ceph-users@xxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to ceph-users-leave@xxxxxxx
