the rm -rf hangs. It looks like one or two unlinks are sent to the log. I can cntl-C the client and the data is still there. The data was is the tmp dir from failed backups. It is gone now. I will investigate more when I have more data later today.

Subject: Re: Problem with rm -rf
Strange,
what is your configuration? At the time of 'hang', is it possible for you to attach gdb to glusterfs and get a backtrace (from every thread, by switching as 'thr 1' 'thr 2' etc) ?
rm -rf seems to work fine for me, wondering how find . -exec rm would make a difference.
thanks,
avati
