Hi, Pranith and Xavi were discussing a bug that caused a directory symlink under <brick>/.glusterfs/<1st-part-gfid>/<2nd-part-gfid>/<full-gfid> to be missing. For bugs like this, it might be useful to have a tool that checks the integrity of the .glusterfs directory structure on a brick. Some simple things that it could check: - a brick has a .glusterfs directory - the root of the brick has a 000...001 GFID - a .glusterfs/<1st-part-gfid>/<2nd-part-gfid>/<full-gfid> should either be a symlink (for a directory) or a hardlink (link-count >= 2) - the trusted.gfid xattr should match the <full-gfid> - any file not under .glusterfs should have a trusted.gfid and that GFID is available under the .glusterfs directory By default, such a tool should only report issues, and not fix them. Not all issues might be fixable by checking one brick anyway. Is anyone aware of such a tool? Should we provide this?
