Could you please be more precise: do you mount zbrick1 only (expected to be empty) or the whole mega-replicator volume? Was glusterfsd restarted on the node serving zbrick1, or was it all done on a "living body"? These questions are possibly naive or even stupid, but many troubles result from simple omissions... > So I do a ls -Rl on the zbrick2 and on zbrick3, and I get the same > result, nothing on the mount point. Does it mean that zbrick2 and zbrick3 became empty _after_ rebuilding zbrick1 with ls -R? Data deleted, because empty zbrick1 was "newer"? Krzysztof
