Hello. It's me again. >Hi Anton, your volume spec looks fine. Please upgrade to 1.3.9 I've upgraded to 1.3.9. Then I recreated a fresh storage from scratch and after a few days of using this storage I got the same error again. Example: dom0r1:~# head /backup/hosting/****-databases/****/databases/mysql/db_iis_enfo_en/iis_informer.MYI head: cannot open `/backup/hosting/****-databases/****/databases/mysql/db_iis_enfo_en/iis_informer.MYI' for reading: Input/output error glusterfs.log contains: 2008-06-09 11:04:49 E [unify.c:873:unify_open] backup-unify: /hosting/****-databases/***/databases/mysql/db_iis_enfo_en/iis_informer.MYI: entry_count is 3 2008-06-09 11:04:49 E [unify.c:876:unify_open] backup-unify: /hosting/****-databases/***/databases/mysql/db_iis_enfo_en/iis_informer.MYI: found on bbrick2 2008-06-09 11:04:49 E [unify.c:876:unify_open] backup-unify: /hosting/****-databases/***/databases/mysql/db_iis_enfo_en/iis_informer.MYI: found on bbrick1 2008-06-09 11:04:49 E [unify.c:876:unify_open] backup-unify: /hosting/****-databases/***/databases/mysql/db_iis_enfo_en/iis_informer.MYI: found on afr-ns 2008-06-09 11:04:49 E [fuse-bridge.c:692:fuse_fd_cbk] glusterfs-fuse: 61894193: (12) /hosting/****-databases/***/databases/mysql/db_iis_enfo_en/iis_informer.MYI => -1 (5) We use rdiff-backup to backup data from our servers. After 2-5 backup cycles we get the situation. Storage systems are placed over ext3fs mounted with attributes rw,noatime,user_xattr. In the same time I tried to 'head' the file, glusterfsd.log got a lot of error messages like: 2008-06-09 11:04:49 E [posix.c:1984:posix_setdents] backupbrick-ns: Error creating file /var/lib/gluster/ns//hosting/****-databases/***/databases/mysql/db_iis_enfo_en/iis_mylinks_cat.MYI with mode (0100660) You can notice the error message complaints about different file. In one second I got 349 lines complaining about different file names in total. All these lines were caused by my 'head' call. glusterfs 1.3.9 built on Jun 2 2008 20:36:02 Repository revision: glusterfs--mainline--2.5--patch-770 Any ideas ? -- Best regards Anton Khalikov
