Gluster users - Jan 2019 - 'dirfingerprint' to get glusterfs directory stats

Hi,

 ??? I released a python program 'dirfingerprint' at 
https://github.com/daimh/dirfingerprint/? . We have been using this 
program to get directory stat recursively from each brick node for 
glusterfs filesystem. as it is always slower to access file meta data 
info from gluster filesystem indirectly than brick node directly.

 ??? In our environment, I did the steps below before accessing brick nodes.

1, generate a ssh key, and put it under all brick nodes.

2, ssh to each brick node so '.ssh/known_hosts' has an entry for each
node.

3, as all our brick node has the actual data storage mounted under 
/brick, the dirfingerprint command I used is something like

dirfingerprint --gluster-brick=node1:/brick --gluster-brick=node2:/brick 
/home

 ??? Feel free to let me know if you have any questions or suggestions.


Best,

Manhong

Thanks for working on this Manhong!

We always like people trying out new things with glusterfs. It would be
great if you can publish a blog, and let Amye know about it, so we can also
publish same / or have a link to it in our website.

A added bonus if you can tweet about it with mention of @gluster

Regards,
Amar
