Would you mind explaining the issue in detail? Apologies if you have already
raised it here before
and could not get to resolution.

Please attach the output of `testparm -s` and any relevant error messages from
logs under
/var/log/samba/ when glusterfs vfs module is being used.

[Gluster-users] does your samba work with 4.1.x (centos 7.5)

Hi Anoop,

This is an overview of how to use Central files in Revit:

https://revitpure.com/blog/how-to-use-central-and-local-files-in-revit

Once a central file is created, other folders are also created in the
location of the file, which contains many other files.

[root at ysmha02 vfsgluster]# ls -la
total 385588
drwxrws---.  4 dijuremo Staff      4096 Nov 12 19:03 .
drwxr-xr-x. 21 root     root       4096 Nov  7 19:51 ..
drwxrws---.  2 dijuremo Staff      4096 Nov 12 19:05 2017-07-06 CAPE CORAL
CJDR_CENTRAL_R2017_backup
-rw-rw----.  1 dijuremo Staff 394825728 Jul 23  2017 2017-07-06 CAPE CORAL
CJDR_CENTRAL_R2017.rvt
drwxrws---.  2 dijuremo Staff      4096 Nov 12 19:03 Revit_temp

So I copied the file 2017 2017-07-06 CAPE CORAL CJDR_CENTRAL_R2017.rvt to
the network share:
\\ysmserver\vfsgluster

When I attempted to create a central file, it failed giving this error
message:

[image: revit-central-creation-error.JPG]

A simple ls -l of the _backup folder shows there is an existing file there
called incrementtable.2108.dat:

[root at ysmha02 vfsgluster]# ls -l 2017-07-06\ CAPE\ CORAL\
CJDR_CENTRAL_R2017_backup/incrementtable.2108.dat
-rw-rw----. 1 dijuremo Staff 2357 Nov 12 19:13 2017-07-06 CAPE CORAL
CJDR_CENTRAL_R2017_backup/incrementtable.2108.dat

However, at this point, things are not OK. The file is *not* a central
file. If I hit close and open the file again, then Revit will hang, usually
just go into the usual windows "Not Responding" state. This can last
for
several minutes. I just closed the application via End Task after 5 minutes
of waiting. Rather than double clicking on the file from the share, I also
tried opening Revit first, then opening the file from Revit using the Open
dialog. This also hangs the program.

In one occasion, I tried to manually delete the folders (long_name_backup
and Revit_temp) from windows using File Explorer to try and recreate the
central again and then the delete process hung in one file,
preview.1957.dat for almost a minute, but it finally succeeded. This is not
normal behavior.

On the server, I can see this is a rather small file:

[root at ysmha02 2017-07-06 CAPE CORAL CJDR_CENTRAL_R2017_backup]# ls -la
total 11
drwxrws---. 2 dijuremo Staff 4096 Nov 12 19:39 .
drwxrws---. 4 dijuremo Staff 4096 Nov 12 19:03 ..
-rw-rw----. 1 dijuremo Staff 2753 Nov 12 19:36 preview.1957.dat

This is the test samba share exported using vfs object = glusterfs:

[vfsgluster]
   path = /vfsgluster
   browseable = yes
   create mask = 660
   directory mask = 770
   write list = @Staff
   kernel share modes = No
   vfs objects = glusterfs
   glusterfs:loglevel = 7
   glusterfs:logfile = /var/log/samba/glusterfs-vfsgluster.log
   glusterfs:volume = export

Please let me know if there is any other information I can provide.
