Yep first we will have a background fixlayout which will serve two things a. Proactive healing of directories so that the first io need not do it. b. CTR Database heal using lookups. 2. The race (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1286208.) is the view consistency issue of gluster and will happen anyhow.

One of the major problem is the performance drop, can be neutralized by having a background fix-layout. Again if we are planning to have a background fix-layout, though it is independent of tier functionality it is good to have a way to determine whether we completed a successful fix-layout at least once, if so we don't need to run fix-layout for every tier restart. Currently tier daemon will be killed if fix-layout fails, I think we can remove this constrain. We can abort the back ground fix-layout, but in my understanding we don't need to stop the tier process. > > I am looking into this issue now and would like to know what are prior discussion that happened before. Just getting insync. This is the one of the open bug [1] that I'm aware of, which can hit in this case. But this race is independent of tier and fix-layout all together. So we can move forward , and this can be fixed parallel. [1] : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1286208. Regards!
