Hi, I seem to have developed a split brain situation on a directory... I think. The directory is a hierarchy that shouldn't exist, as it's actually a hard link to the volume itself in the brick. Here's what I'm seeing: - Brick mount point (XFS): /mnt/gfs/wingu1/sdb1 - Volume: /mnt/gfs/wingu1/sdb1/homes The FUSE mount for this volume (/home" shows a directory hierarchy similar to the brick mount point itself, but it's not actually accessible or deletable etc: # ls /home/mnt/gfs/wingu1/sdb1/homes ls: cannot access /home/mnt/gfs/wingu1/sdb1/homes: No such file or directory This volume is replica 2, and if I look on the corresponding bricks, only one of them has this structure. This seems to be causing the self-heal daemon to go bonkers, develop a case of inception, and crash: http://fpaste.org/121354/40654203/ Log truncated by quite a bit, as it's hundreds of lines of the same... Is this split brain? And would it be safe to just delete this erroneous directory from the brick itself? Gluster version is 3.5.1 on CentOS 6.5.

[Gluster-users] Split brain on directory?
looks weird,but I don't think it's a strictly defined "split brain".can you paste the output of getattr command on the directory you mentioned? -----????----- From: Alan Orth Sent: Monday, July 28, 2014 6:09 PM To: gluster-users Subject: [Gluster-users] Split brain on directory? _______________________________________________ Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users at gluster.org http://supercolony.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users
