[Gluster-users] Geo-Rep. 3.5.3, Missing Files, Incorrect "Files Pending"
I am having an issue with geo-replication. There were a number of
complications when I upgraded to 3.5.3, but geo-replication was (I
think) working at some point. The volume is accessed via samba using
vfs_glusterfs.
The main issue is that geo-replication has not been sending updated
copies of old files to the replicated server. So in the scenario where
file created -> time passes -> file is modified -> file is saved, the
new version is not replicated.
Is it possible that one brick is having a geo-rep issue and the others
are not? Consider this output:
MASTER NODE                     MASTER VOL    MASTER BRICK
        SLAVE                   STATUS     CHECKPOINT STATUS    CRAWL
STATUS    FILES SYNCD    FILES PENDING    BYTES PENDING    DELETES
PENDING    FILES SKIPPED

This seems to show that there are 8191 files_pending on just one
brick, and the others are up to date. I am suspicious of the 8191
number because it's looks like we're at a bucket-size boundary on the
backend. I've tried stopping and re-starting the rep session. I've
also tried changing the change_detector from xsync to changelog.
Neither seems to have had an effect.
It seems like geo-replication is quite wonky in 3.5.x. Is there light
at the end of the tunnel, or should I find another solution to
replicate?
Cheers,
Dave

[Gluster-users] Geo-Rep. 3.5.3, Missing Files, Incorrect "Files Pending"
Status output has issue showing exact number of files in sync. Please check the numbers on disk and let us know if difference exists between Master and Secondary Volume. -- regards Aravinda On 05/05/2015 06:58 AM, David Gibbons wrote:> I am having an issue with geo-replication.
