Yet again, lets make the situation completely clear and transparent: Is it true that there is code inside the fs (be it the one I pointed to or elsewhere) that influences a self-heal decision based on the file size? What is the use of this code concerning self heal: static int afr_sh_mark_biggest_as_source (afr_self_heal_t *sh, int child_count) { int biggest = 0; int i; for (i = 0; i < child_count; i++) { if (SIZE_GREATER (&sh->buf[i], &sh->buf[biggest])) { biggest = i; } } sh->sources[biggest] = 1; return 1; } xlators/cluster/afr/src/afr-self-heal.h: #define SIZE_GREATER(buf1,buf2) ((((struct stat *)buf1)->st_size > (((struct stat *)buf2)->st_size))) -- Regards, Stephan
