Yes indeed it is probably what's going on. what filesystem are you using and what are the mount options?

What does this mean? find /home/sharedvol/.glusterfs/indices/xattrop |wc -l 65001 My brick is on ext4. Gluster is 3.12.1-2 on Centos7, an "old style" replica 2 on 2 bricks. I'm pushing millions of files from another gluster cluster (that is on 3.6 and i'm unable to upgrade, so I decided to create a new cluster and move data).
