Hello all, I'm having a problem with self-healing feature of GlusterFS. I'm running Debian lenny kernel 2.6.26-1-amd64. When one of the servers, which was unavailable during a file copy, returns back online, AFR doesn't work when files are requested. The missing files are created with size of 0. The check on the extended attributes on the files on both servers return empty tables. getfattr -d /srv/export/files/data/file/test1 <empty> The file systems on servers are mounted with user_xattr option: mount /dev/sda2 on / type ext3 (rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro,user_xattr) The set up is a simple testing environment with 2 servers and one client with the following configuration. on both servers: cat /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs-server.vol volume posix type storage/posix option directory /srv/export/files end-volume volume server type protocol/server option transport-type tcp/server subvolumes posix option auth.ip.posix.allow * end-volume on client machine: cat /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs-client.vol volume client1 type protocol/client option transport-type tcp/client option remote-host 192.168.1.176 option transport-timeout 10 option remote-subvolume posix end-volume volume client2 type protocol/client option transport-type tcp/client option remote-host 192.168.1.177 option transport-timeout 10 option remote-subvolume posix end-volume volume afr1 type cluster/afr subvolumes client1 client2 end-volume I'm mounting the volume on client with: glusterfs -f /etc/glusterfs/glusterfs-client.vol -n afr1 /var/www/storage/ mount glusterfs on /var/www/storage type fuse (rw,nosuid,nodev,allow_other,default_permissions,max_read=1048576) glusterfs -V glusterfs 1.3.12 built on Sep 17 2008 22:09:25 Repository revision: glusterfs--mainline--2.5--patch-797 I'd appreciate it, If anyone can explain me what is causing this problem and how to solve it. Thanks in advance. Lior.
