Replying and adding gluster-users. That seems more appropriate? ________________________________________ From: gluster-devel-bounces+jwalker=gluster.com@xxxxxxxxxx [gluster-devel-bounces+jwalker=gluster.com@xxxxxxxxxx] on behalf of Emmanuel Dreyfus [manu@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, June 28, 2011 6:51 AM To: gluster-devel@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: volume rebalance still broken Hi I am back with my volume rebalance problem on NetBSD. The logs told me I had error when handling extended attributes. The problem were caused by differences between the Linux and NetBSD extended attribute API. I fixed it by implementing the Linux API à la <sys/xattr.h> in NetBSD, hopefully this will make my life easier in the future. gluster volume rebalance now run without a hitch and logs report no errors. However, I have a problem with the file that existed on the volume prior the first rebalance operation: client# ls -l old_file -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 893 May 10 11:47 old_file client# cat old_file cat: old_file: Not a directory The file exists on both servers (this is distributed-replicate with 2 x 2 bricks), and I can read it here. Files added after the rebalance can be accessed without any problem. I tried stopping glusterfsd, removing all extended attribute on a bick and restarting it. glusterfs was able to reconstruct attributes: trusted.gfid trusted.glusterfs.test trusted.afr.gfs1-client-0 trusted.afr.gfs1-client-1 trusted.afr.gfs1-client-2 trusted.afr.gfs1-client-3 trusted.glusterfs.dht If I remove the desired file from a brick, afr will restre it from the other brick, but it is still not accessible. Removing extended atributes from the desired file case it to disapear from client view, and I get this in the logs: E [posix.c:510:posix_stat] 0-gfs1-posix: lstat on /old_file failed: Attribute not found Unmounting and remounting the volume lead me back to the original situation where reading the file gets ENODIR. Any hint? -- Emmanuel Dreyfus manu@xxxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ Gluster-devel mailing list Gluster-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-devel
