hi all, we're a post production company - and have our 30 machine renderfarm now using this volume as a image and data store. this has been running ok for a week or so - until now. i've just rendered a bunch of frames to the gluster volume - and while i'm rendering i've been viewing the images. however, now that all the frames have finished rendering - i'm still seeing the older partially rendered frames on my primary workstation. if i copy the frames (by ssh'ing into another machine to a shared location - i see them all correctly rendered). so, my own machine seems intent on seeing them as they were over 20 mins ago. i'm not sure if this is a server or client issue. i'm using/testing out gluster 3.1.1 on 4 machines using the following setup: g1:~ # gluster volume info Volume Name: glustervol1 Type: Distributed-Replicate Status: Started Number of Bricks: 4 x 2 = 8 Transport-type: tcp Bricks: Brick1: g1:/mnt/glus1 Brick2: g2:/mnt/glus1 Brick3: g3:/mnt/glus1 Brick4: g4:/mnt/glus1 Brick5: g1:/mnt/glus2 Brick6: g2:/mnt/glus2 Brick7: g3:/mnt/glus2 Brick8: g4:/mnt/glus2 Options Reconfigured: performance.stat-prefetch: 1 performance.cache-size: 1gb performance.write-behind-window-size: 512mb ...x4 dells with 10ge cards running opensuse 11.3 using glusterfs/fuse. so far it's been pretty good. the volume is mounted via ldap/autofs (not that it should affect anything i think): g1:/glustervol1 on /n/auto/gv1 type fuse.glusterfs (rw,allow_other,default_permissions,max_read=131072) ..i'm at a loss - and would appreciate any ideas/suggestions as to why this is and can it be fixed. it's a pretty fundamental issue - i'm hoping that i've overlooked something obvious. regards, paul ps - i've also "stat"ed all the files - that didn't seem to make any difference. pps - access permissions are ok too. ie, not a 2nd group issue.
