Hi,
We have a 2 server replica gluster, about 10TB (5 bricks)
on each side. The servers are fairly high-end and are
connected via a private ethernet connection, appearing to
replicate with each other very quickly.
Running Ubuntu Precise (12.04) and GlusterFS 3.4.1 on the
servers.
They're working quite heavily in production and downtime
is difficult to arrange.
We've had a lot of trouble with split-brain, where
files/dirs on both sides appear identical
(md5sum, datestamps, etc) but I've fixed most of them by
erasing the affected files
on one side and letting it re-sync.
However, we're left with split brain on '/' and several
top level directories.
I'm uncomfortable erasing that much of one side to solve
the problem.
any advice?
