Hi folks,I tried out default retention periods e.g. to set the Retention date to 2071. When I did the WORMing, everything seems to be OK. From FUSE and also at Brick-Level, the retention was set to 2071 on all nodes.Additionally I enabled the storage.ctime option, so that the timestamps are stored in the mdata xattr, too. But after a while I obeserved, that on Brick-Level the atime (which stores the retention) was switched to 1934:# stat /gluster/brick1/glusterbrick/data/file3.txt

From FUSE you get the time of what the clients set, as we now store timestamp as extended attribute, not the 'stat->st_atime'.
This is called 'ctime' feature which we introduced in glusterfs-5.0, It helps us to support statx() variables.
_______________________________________________I find out that XFS supports only 32-Bit timestamp values. So in my expectation it should not be possible to set the atime to 2071. But at first it was 2071 and later it was switched to 1934 due to the YEAR-2038 problem. I am asking myself:1. Why it is possible to set atime on XFS greater than 2038?2. And why this atime switched to a time lower 1970 after a while?RegardsDavid Spisla
