Some additional info: http://fpaste.org/83806/43825451/ This is from nfs.log on the server that all my clients contact for NFS mounts. It is peered with the other servers, but has no bricks. So far I have determined the following about my bricks: * There are no stray directories under .glusterfs/??/??/ * There is nothing remaining with nonzero trusted.afr* attributes * There *are* broken symlinks (too many levels) I will run another check to make sure there are no files with one hardlink outside of the indices directory. I will also check for files that have more than two hardlinks. I do not use hardlinks in my data, so I think that this should never happen. Is there anything else I can look for, and if I find something, where can I go for information about how to fix it?
