Hi Raghavendra, > What is the backend filesystem you are using? Does it support extended > attributes? you can check the presence of exten > ded attribute support using setfattr/getfattr commands. The backend filesystem is XFS. The command used to create it was "mkfs.xfs" without any option. I later (Aug. 5th) changed the mount options in /etc/fstab from "defaults" to "noatime,attr2". My problems started to happen on Aug. 6-7, so one of my suspictions is that having set "noatime,attr2" on already existing data (used by glusterfs) may have led to errors on the AFR side. > Also the transport-timeout value is too low. Can you test again with > transport-timeout set to default value (42s)? For sure! Now I'm in holidays, the first days of september I'll let you know. Regards, Marco
