Have you checked that you have free inodes on your XFS partitions? xfs_db -r -c sb -c p /dev/sda1 | egrep 'ifree|icount' If you're running low - you'll have to mount your partition with the inode64 option. Note that it requires a 64bit box and all your gluster clients will also need to be 64bit for everything to work. There is a thread here a few months back about inode64 and gluster - dig through the archives lots of good info in it - but the short is it works fine as long as everything is 64bit. liam On Fri, Sep 18, 2009 at 5:44 PM, Nathan Stratton <nathan at robotics.net> wrote: > > Anyone else running into problems with XFS and Gluster?
