Without this, we would end up considering the transaction as failure even on the bricks on which the lock was not obtained, resulting in unnecessary fsyncs during the post-op phase of every write transaction for non-appending writes.

Description of problem: ------------------------- On a 3-way replicated volume mounted on a Windows client, one of the bricks was brought down. The write speed observed while copying a .iso file was substantially reduced as compared to the speeds observed with all bricks in the replica set being up. See results of the copy operations below - With all 3 bricks up -------------------- PS Z:\> robocopy C:\Users\shruti\Downloads\test Z:\ RHS.iso ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ROBOCOPY :: Robust File Copy for Windows ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Started : Wed Jun 03 16:36:45 2015 Source : C:\Users\shruti\Downloads\test\ Dest : Z:\ Files : RHS.iso Options : /COPY:DAT /R:1000000 /W:30 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1 C:\Users\shruti\Downloads\test\ 100% New File 1.5 g RHS.iso ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total Copied Skipped Mismatch FAILED Extras Dirs : 1 0 1 0 0 0 Files : 1 1 0 0 0 0 Bytes : 1.566 g 1.566 g 0 0 0 0 Times : 0:01:21 0:01:21 0:00:00 0:00:00 Speed : 20750024 Bytes/sec.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): ---------------------------------------------------------------- glusterfs-3.7.0-3.el6rhs.x86_64 samba-4.1.17-7.el6rhs.x86_64 How reproducible: ------------------ 100% Steps to Reproduce: -------------------- 1. Created a 6x3 volume and mounted on a Windows 7 client machine. 2. Copied a .iso file from the Windows local drive to the gluster share. 3. Brought down one brick of the replica set and ran the copy operation again. Actual results: ----------------- There is a significant drop in write speeds when results from step 3 are compared to results from step 2. Write speed with one brick down reduce to roughly 40% of the speed observed with all bricks up. Expected results: ------------------ Expected behaviour is that write speed should not be affected if one brick in a replica set is down. --- Additional comment from Ravishankar N on 2015-08-04 12:09:36 EDT --- Patch: http://review.gluster.org/#/c/11827/ --- Additional comment from Anand Avati on 2015-08-05 13:00:35 EDT --- REVIEW: http://review.gluster.org/11827 (afr: modify afr_txn_nothing_failed()) posted (#2) for review on master by Ravishankar N (ravishankar) --- Additional comment from Ben England on 2015-08-09 21:33:50 EDT --- adding perf team members to cc list
