We saw this error popping up in eventing component which is used in RHHI. So recommend fixing it.

Comment 13 SATHEESARAN 2019-10-14 09:28:59 UTC

Tested with glusterfs-6.0-15.el7rhgs

1. RHGS nodes are set with pure IPV6
2. Glusterd configured to support inet v6
3. Gluster peer probe done with IPv6
4. Gluster volume is created with the same IPV6
5. Gluster volume is fuse mounted with special mount option and then
I/O done.
6. Geo-rep session also initiated and completed to another gluster IPv6 cluster

No errors seen.
