Unable to reset gluster node after crash as filesystem ran out of space

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all.

We had a strange issue with Gluster 3.8.4 under RHEL 7.2.

 

Initially, the partition storing the Gluster bricks ran out of space. We tried recovering after expanding the underlying partition. Eventually we decided to ‘reset’ Gluster, create the volume again from scratch. I tried purging gluster by running something like:

 

 

yum remove –y ‘glusterfs*’

rm -rf /var/lib/glusterd

rm –rf /etc/gluster*

 

Reinstalling gluster:

 

yum install –y glusterfs-server

systemctl start glusterd

 

Now a simple peer probe operation crashes the daemon:

 

$ gluster peer probe <any-valid-hostname>

 

Connection failed. Please check if gluster daemon is operational.

 

 

Looks like there is something I missed in the filesystem.

 

 

On a clean gluster install on another host,

 

$ gluster peer probe <any-valid-hostname>

 

peer probe: failed: Probe returned with Transport endpoint is not connected

 

Which is expected.

 

So somehow my clean install is not clean any more. This host I can rebuild, but would be good to know the issue if this occurs on a host that cannot easily be rebuilt.
