hi Emmanuel, If lookup triggers self-heal and the self-heal fails, lookup wont fail unless it is a splitbrain on the entry i.e. gfid mismatch. There seems to be a problem in the logs you have mentioned. For some reason the gfid is all zeros, I wonder how you hit this case. Do you have a testcase that can re-create this case. Could you post the output of 'getfattr -d -m . -e hex' for /manu/netbsd/usr/src/lib/libkafs, /manu/netbsd/usr/src/lib/libkafs/libkafs.so.9, /manu/netbsd/usr/src/lib/libkafs/libkafs.so On both the bricks.
