Hi We have been trying back-up a glusterfs (v3.1.4) area using the Tivoli TSM software to an off-site area. The back-up keeps failing with the following typical error messages 06/14/2011 22:22:58 ANS1587W I/O error reading file attributes for: /gdata/projects/philex/OAG/2011/May16/mdor3km10/coast_den2.in. errno = 22, Invalid argument 06/14/2011 22:22:59 ANS4007E Error processing '/gdata/projects/philex/OAG/2011/May16/mdor3km07/coast_den2.in': access to the object is denied We originally thought the problem was bad meta-pointer files, but we still experience the failures after deleting all meta-pointer files. Has anyone else experienced/solved this problem? -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Pat Haley Email: phaley at mit.edu Center for Ocean Engineering Phone: (617) 253-6824 Dept. of Mechanical Engineering Fax: (617) 253-8125 MIT, Room 5-222B http://web.mit.edu/phaley/www/ 77 Massachusetts Avenue Cambridge, MA 02139-4301
