Hi,

I am using geo-replication since now over a year on my 3.7.20 GlusterFS volumes and noticed that the CHANGELOG.<TIMESTAMP> in the .glusterfs/changelogs directory of a brick never get deleted. I have for example over 120k files in one of these directories and it is growing constantly.

So my question, does GlusterFS have any mechanism to automatically delete old and processed CHANGELOG files? If not is it safe to delete them manually?

I will try to answer the question, I'm not an expert in geo-replication, So I could be wrong here. I think GlusterFS won't delete the changelogs automatically, reason being geo-replication is not the author of changelogs, it is just a consumer any other application could use changelogs.

You can safely delete *all processed* changelogs from actual changelogs directory and geo-replication directory. You can look into the stime set as the extended attribute on the root to see the time which geo-replication last synced.

Adding Kotresh, and Aravinda .
