Gluster users - Oct 2014 - Can we know fileSystem event from GlusterFS ？

Hi, every one:

    we are using GlusterFS V3.5.2 and we are facing a problem of monitoring
filechanges:

    Suppose we create a new file in a volume,  can GlusterFS log it somewhere,
informing things like :  file add in column?

    Any suggestion will be appreciated?thanks.

GlusterFS has changelog feature. More information can be found here:
https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/blob/master/doc/features/geo-replication/libgfchangelog.md

However, changelog logs GFID (unique id of a file) and not the path name. Here
are some pointers on how to get file path from GFID:
https://github.com/gluster/glusterfs/blob/master/doc/debugging/gfid-to-path.md

Another way is to use inotify on brick mounts. inotify has it's own
limitations of being not scalable and not being recursive. If you're lucky
you might find some user space libraries that do implement recursive monitoring,
which is a little tricky and prone to race conditions.
