Description CyD 2014-11-27 10:34:42 UTC

Description of problem:
Sometimes the glusterfs partition on one of the servers of my cluster is disappearing from mount.
When I try to mount it back, OS says that the partition is busy, but not accessible.
I have to do a "umount -l" and mount it back.
This causes my VM to crash, so not so nice.

How can I troubleshoot this ?

Thanks in advance

How reproducible: Don't know how to...


Actual results:
Partition disappearing

Expected results:
Partition should stay mounted :)

Can you post anything from the logs (probably in /var/log/glusterfs) on the client?  That might show if you're getting transport errors (most likely) or something else.

GlusterFS 3.7.0 has been released (http://www.gluster.org/pipermail/gluster-users/2015-May/021901.html), and the Gluster project maintains N-2 supported releases. The last two releases before 3.7 are still maintained, at the moment these are 3.6 and 3.5.

This bug has been filed against the 3,4 release, and will not get fixed in a 3.4 version any more. Please verify if newer versions are affected with the reported problem. If that is the case, update the bug with a note, and update the version if you can. In case updating the version is not possible, leave a comment in this bug report with the version you tested, and set the "Need additional information the selected bugs from" below the comment box to "bugs".

If there is no response by the end of the month, this bug will get automatically closed.

GlusterFS 3.4.x has reached end-of-life.

If this bug still exists in a later release please reopen this and change the version or open a new bug.
