Hi We have a similar problem. Our file system became unusable for some reason. It seems to me like GlusterFS believes that files are present on some nodes when they really are not. I want to try to regenerate the namespace from the data that is actually present on the nodes. Does anyone have information about how that can be achieved? Somewhere I read that: Namespace does not hold any crucial data, it is just like a cache. Infact you can wipe our your namespace anytime and it will rebuild again. Thanks for your help Trygve Hardersen Jotta AS On Tue, Jun 23, 2009 at 12:11 PM, David Saez Padros <david at ols.es> wrote: > Hi > > i have setup a unify volume using glusterfs 2.0.1 using several > disks with existing data, but once mounted in the remote client > the volume appears empty where it was suposed to auto-heal it's > contents automatically, is there any way to automatically > generate the namespace so existing data is visible to clients ? > > -- > Thanx & best regards ... > > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > David Saez Padros http://www.ols.es > On-Line Services 2000 S.L. telf +34 902 50 29 75 > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > > > _______________________________________________ > Gluster-users mailing list > Gluster-users at gluster.org > http://zresearch.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
