Hi, I have deleted two large files (around 1 TB each) via gluster client (mounted on /mnt folder). I used a simple rm command, e.g "rm /mnt/hugefile". This resulted in hang of the cluster (no io can be done, the VM hanged). After a few minutes my ssh connection to the gluster node gets disconnected - I had to reconnect, which was very strange, probably some kind of timeout. Nothing in dmesg so it's probably the ssh that terminated the connection. After that the cluster works, everything seems fine, the file is gone in the client but the space is not reclaimed. The deleted file is also gone from bricks, but the shards are still there and use up all the space. I need to reclaim the space. How do I delete the shards / other metadata for a file that no longer exists?
