Hello, While testing healing after bitrot error it was found that self healing cannot heal files which were manually deleted from brick. Gluster 3.8.1: - Create volume, mount it locally and copy test file to it [root@srv01 ~]# gluster volume create test01 replica 2 srv01:/R1/test01 srv02:/R1/test01 volume create: test01: success: please start the volume to access data [root@srv01 ~]# gluster volume start test01 volume start: test01: success [root@srv01 ~]# mount -t glusterfs srv01:/test01 /mnt [root@srv01 ~]# cp /etc/passwd /mnt [root@srv01 ~]# ls -l /mnt итого 2 -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1505 авг 16 19:59 passwd - Then remove test file from first brick like we have to do in case of bitrot error in the file [root@srv01 ~]# rm /R1/test01/passwd [root@srv01 ~]# ls -l /mnt итого 0 [root@srv01 ~]# - Issue full self heal [root@srv01 ~]# gluster volume heal test01 full Launching heal operation to perform full self heal on volume test01 has been successful Use heal info commands to check status [root@srv01 ~]# tail -2 /var/log/glusterfs/glustershd.log [2016-08-16 16:59:56.483767] I [MSGID: 108026] [afr-self-heald.c:611:afr_shd_full_healer] 0-test01-replicate-0: starting full sweep on subvol test01-client-0 [2016-08-16 16:59:56.486560] I [MSGID: 108026] [afr-self-heald.c:621:afr_shd_full_healer] 0-test01-replicate-0: finished full sweep on subvol test01-client-0 - Now we still see no files in mount point (it becomes empty right after removing file from the brick) [root@srv01 ~]# ls -l /mnt итого 0 [root@srv01 ~]# - Then try to access file by using full name (lookup-optimize and readdir-optimize are turned off by default). Now glusterfs shows the file! [root@srv01 ~]# ls -l /mnt/passwd -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 1505 авг 16 19:59 /mnt/passwd - And it reappeared in the brick [root@srv01 ~]# ls -l /R1/test01/ итого 4 -rw-r--r--. 2 root root 1505 авг 16 19:59 passwd [root@srv01 ~]# Is it a bug or we can tell self heal to scan all files on all bricks in the volume? -- Dmitry Glushenok Jet Infosystems _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
