It seems that I got confused.So you see the files on the bricks (servers) , but not when you mount glusterfs on the clients ? If so - this is not the sharding feature as it works the opposite way.

Files on a gluster volume should never be accessed directly. To debug this further, please send the following: 1. The directory contents when the listing is performed directly on the brick. 2. The tcpdump of the gluster client when listing the directory using the following command: tcpdump -i any -s 0 -w /var/tmp/dirls.pcap tcp and not port 22 You can send these directly to me in case you want to keep the information private.
