Re: Pretty much any operation related to Gluster mounted fs hangs for a while

Yep, so it is indeed a split-brain caused by a mismatch of the trusted.gfid attribute. 

Sadly, I don't know precisely what causes it. -Communication loss might be one of the triggers. I am guessing the files with the problem are dynamic, correct? In our setup (also replica 2), communication is never a problem but we do see this when one of the server takes a reboot. Maybe some obscure and difficult to understand race between background self-heal and the self heal daemon...

In any case, a normal procedure for split brain recovery would work for you if you wish to get you files back in function. It's easy to find on google. I use the instructions on Joe Julian's blog page myself.

   Oh, right!

Follow the outputs:

Not sure exactly what that means. I'm googling, and would appreciate if you
guys can bring some light.

Thanks!
