How reproducible:
always

Comment 3 Gowrishankar Rajaiyan 2013-11-11 10:31:02 UTC
Please provide steps to verify.

Comment 4 Venky Shankar 2013-11-11 11:03:17 UTC
Steps to verify:

1. Create and start a distributed volume and mount the volume
2. Perform some I/O on the mount
3. Check the 'stime' extended-attribute for the brick (on the backend)
4. From the mount fetch the extended attribute (name to be taken from step 3)
5. The value of the xattr should be the minimum value on the bricks.

Verified on the build glusterfs-3.4.0.44rhs

on the mount point 

[root@shaktiman ~]# getfattr -d -m . -e hex /mnt/master/
getfattr: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names
# file: mnt/master/

trusted.glusterfs.volume-id=0xb2a5d20579ec471ea72f782a2063c683

and the value of stime from the backends, 

>>> int("5285f40b00065b94",16)
5946427211094842260
>>> int("5285f40c0003a98a",16)

>>> min(5946427211094842260,5946427215389632906,5946427211094842260,5946427211094842260)
5946427211094842260

and 5285f40b00065b94 is the minimum stime, which got on mount point.
