I understand that you are experiencing hang while doing some operations on files/directories in a GlusterFS volume share from a Windows client. For simplicity can you attach the output of following command: # gluster volume info <volume> # testparm -s --section-name global > This is the test samba share exported using vfs object = glusterfs: > > [vfsgluster] > path = /vfsgluster > browseable = yes > create mask = 660 > directory mask = 770 > write list = @Staff > kernel share modes = No > vfs objects = glusterfs > glusterfs:loglevel = 7 > glusterfs:logfile = /var/log/samba/glusterfs-vfsgluster.log > glusterfs:volume = export Since you have mentioned path as /vfsgluster I hope you are sharing a subdirectory under root of the volume. > Full smb.conf > http://termbin.com/y4j0 I see the "clustering" parameter set to 'yes'. How many nodes are there in the cluster? Out of those how many are running as samba and/or gluster nodes? > /var/log/samba/glusterfs-vfsgluster.log > http://termbin.com/5hdr > > Please let me know if there is any other information I can provide. Are there any errors in /var/log/samba/log.<IP/hostname>?
