Could you explain a little more about this? The below is a message from
the kernel telling you that the mlx4_ib (Mellanox Infiniband?) driver is
requesting more continuous memory than is immediately available.

So, the questions I have regarding this:

1. how is infiniband involved/configured in this environment?
2. was there a change/update of the driver (kernel update maybe?)
3. do you get a coredump of the glusterfsd process when this happens?
4. is this a fuse mount process, or a brick process? (check by PID?)

Thanks,
Niels
