> I tried this but still get the same result (3 nodes ok, 4th node breaks it - doesn't matter which the 4th node is). "getfattr -d" returned nothing on the mount directory btw. I had this same sort of problem. Do a man on getfattr and you will find that the -m option is needed since it will only return extended attributes that match the pattern "^user\\." by default. If you use: getfattr -d -m '\.' /path-to-backend And you will get something like getfattr: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names # file: local/scratch2 trusted.glusterfs.afr.entry-pending=0sAAAAAAAAAAA= trusted.glusterfs.dht=0sAAAAAQAAAACf///7v///+Q== trusted.glusterfs.test="working\000" After using a setfattr -x trusted.glusterfs.dht on the backend mount points everything worked again. I just recently installed 2.0.0rc1 and set up the nufa translator on top of the afr translator after trying out nufa alone across my cluster. Unfortunately I made a couple of small mistakes in the configuration and got the "Structure needs cleaning" issue. So I kept banging my head until I found this solution. -Tim -- ================================================================== | J.
