rm -rf /data/brick*/homegfs_bkp/backup.0/old_shelf4/AegisWhat happens to all of the files in the .glusterfs directory? Does this get rebuilt or do the links stay there for files that now no longer exist?
And, is this same issue what causes all of the broken links in .glusterfs. See attached image for example. There appears to be a lot of broken links the .glusterfs directories. Is this normal or does it indicate another problem.
Finally, if I search through the /data/brick* directories, should I find no entries of "-------T" permission files with zero length files? Do I need to clean all of these up somehow? A quick look at /data/brick01bkp/homegfs_bkp/.glusterfs/2f/54 shows many of these files. They look like ---------T 3 rbhinge pme_ics 0 Jan 9 16:45 2f54d7d6-968b-442f-8cfe-eff01d6cefe7 ---------T 2 rbhinge pme_ics 0 Jan 9 21:40 2f54d7e7-b198-4fd4-aec7-f5d0ff020f72
How do I find out what file these entries were pointing to? David ------ Original Message ------ From: "Shyam" <srangana@xxxxxxxxxx>To: "David F.

All of the files are 0-lengthand have ------T permissions.These files are linkto files that are created by DHT, which basically mean the files were either renamed, or the brick layout changed (I suspect the former to be the cause).These files should have been deleted when the files that they point to were deleted, looks like this did not happen.Can I get the following information for some of the files here, - getfattr -d -m . -e text <path to file on brick>- The output of trusted.glusterfs.dht.linkto xattr should state where the real file belongs, in this case as there are only 2 bricks, it should be brick01bkp subvol - As the second brick is empty, we should be able to safely delete these files from the brick and proceed to do an rmdir on the mount point of the volume as the directory is now empty. - Please check, the one sub-directory that is showing up in this case as well, "save1"Any suggestions on how to fix this and how to prevent it from happening?I believe there are renames happening here, possibly by the archive creator, one way to prevent the rename from creating a linkto file is to use the DHT set parameter to set a pattern so that file name hash considers only the static part of the name.The set parameter is, cluster.extra-hash-regex.A link on a similar problem and how to use this set parameter (there a few in the gluster forums) would be, http://www.gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-devel/2014-November/042863.htmlAdditionally, there is a bug here, the unlink of the file should have cleaned up the linkto as well, so that all of the above is not required, we have noticed this with NFS and FUSE mounts (ref bugs, 1117923, 1139992), and investigation is in progress on the same. We will step up the priority on this so that we have a clean fix that can be used to prevent this in the future.Shyam
