Re: stale file handle on gluster NFS client when trying to remove a directory

[Nithya Balachandran <nbalacha@xxxxxxxxxx>]

An ESTALE error usually means the gfid could not be found. Does repeating the "rm -rf" delete the directory?

Regards,

Nithya

Hi,

After running rm -rf on a directory, the files under it got deleted, but the directory was not deleted and was showing stale file handle error. After 18 minutes, I'm able to delete the directory. So could anyone help me in knowing what could have happened or when in general I get such errors.

The following is NFS log:
