[Gluster-users] Gluster USER SERVICEABLE SNAPSHOTS: Cannot see `.snaps` directory
It works. Thanks, Aravinda.
According to Red Hat's documentation, I can see the hidden folders by using
ls -l command. It seems that this is different from the content in the Red Hat
document.
[root at pgsql-1 ~]# ls -la /mnt/glusterfs_disperse_vol_2/
... cannot see any hidden directory ...
[root at pgsql-1 ~]# ls -la /mnt/glusterfs_disperse_vol_2/.snaps_disperse_vol_2

Observed one more thing from your Volume info. Snaps directory is configured as

Try `ls /media3/.snaps_disperse_vol_2` and `ls
/mnt/disperse_vol_2/.snaps_disperse_vol_2`

It makes me crazy, I don't have any clues to solve this problem.

I think `.snaps` is not shown when you do `ls` it is a virtual directory. Please
confirm if it is not visible when you run ls command as below.
ls /media3/.snaps
In the fuse example, Snap volume itself is mounted and not using User
Serviceable snapshots feature. Try mounting as below and see if .snaps directory
is visible.
mount -t glusterfs 10.10.10.1:/disperse_vol_2 /mnt/disperse_vol_2
ls /mnt/disperse_vol_2/.snaps

Tks, Aravinda 
The snapshot is already activated and you can see the snapshot status is started
in the previous command output.

Sorry for disturbing you... Uh, I met a very strange GlusterFS problem: I can
access snapshots by using FUSE mount and it works fine. However, when I test
Gluster USER-SERVICEABLE snapshots feature, I find I cannot see .snap directory

My Gluster version is glusterfs 8.6. My OS version is CentOS 7.9.2009

But I can not see any .snaps directory in the media3 directory.
```

I can access snapshot by using FUSE mount and it works fine.
```

[Gluster-users] Gluster USER SERVICEABLE SNAPSHOTS: Cannot see `.snaps` directory
I think it's worth opening an issue. as features.uss is enabled, 'ls -la /FUSE/mountpoint' must show the snapshot directory (in your case '.snaps_disperse_vol_2') Best Regards,Strahil Nikolov On Wed, Dec 22, 2021 at 10:49, samfisher1<samfisher1 at 126.com> wrote: ________ Community Meeting Calendar: Schedule - Every 2nd and 4th Tuesday at 14:30 IST / 09:00 UTC Bridge: https://meet.google.com/cpu-eiue-hvk Gluster-users mailing list Gluster-users at gluster.org https://lists.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-users -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
