Hi,

Could you share the following pieces of information:

1) output of `gluster volume info <VOL>`
2) the client/mount logs
3) glustershd logs

Subject: Different file in two bricks,        no split-brain detected

Description of problem:
My setup has 5 gluster volumes, and each of them has 2 bricks as backend.
When I copy a large file (100MB) in a gluster volume, 9/10 times it works OK. But about 1 in 10 times the resulting md5 is wrong. After checking I found that the file in one brick has the correct md5sum, while the file in the other brick has a wrong md5sum. The size of the two files is the same.
By running "cmp -l <correct_file> <wrong_file>"
I found that the difference was in 49 bytes. So the files in the two bricks had the same size, but 49 files were different. Interestingly enough I saw the same number of 49 bytes being different at every check that I made.
 
Do you know what might cause this behavior, has anyone seen something like this before? Is this a bug in glusterfs?

How reproducible:
Not easy to reproduce, about 1 in 10 times in some environments, not reproducible at all in other environments.
 
Steps to Reproduce:
1. scp <100MB file> <path in gluster volume>
 
Actual results:
1. md5sum of destination should be the same as the source
2. If checksum of files is different between the two bricks, the command "gluster volume heal <vol-name> info split-brain" should return that the two bricks are in split-brain.
 
 
Expected results:
1. 1 in 10 times the destination file has incorrect checksum. Size is the same, but 49 bytes are altered.
2. "gluster volume heal <vol-name> info split-brain" does not return that the bricks are in split-brain, even though the checksum of the file in the two bricks is different. The size of the file is the same in the two bricks. But 49 bytes are altered.
