Brent, I hope the system is still in the same state to dig some info out. To verify that it is a file descriptor leak, can you please run this test. On the server, run ps ax and get the PID of glusterfsd. then do an ls -l on /proc/<pid>/fd/ and please mail the output of that. That should give a precise idea of what is happening. If the system has been reset out of the state, please give us the spec file you are using and the commands you ran (of some major jobs like heavy rsync) so that we will try to reproduce the error in our setup. regards, avati On Wed, Apr 04, 2007 at 01:12:33PM -0400, Brent A Nelson wrote: > I put a 2-node GlusterFS mirror into use internally yesterday, as > GlusterFS was looking pretty solid, and I rsynced a whole bunch of stuff > to it.
