Description Harshavardhana 2009-11-09 18:53:46 UTC
Centralized logging is not really a need as Gluster Storage Platform addresses
this issue. Making a single server choke, when there are like 1000-2000 clients
is a bad idea. 


While the issue was reproduced and seen to be that "client_log_cbk" was not
even the list of mops, so "cbks" first element over lapped ie. client_forget_cbk


Now there needs two fixes

1. Disable the centralized logging. 
2. Added boundaries for "gf_mops, gf_ops, gf_cbks" to avoid
   future overlapping.

Comment 1 Harshavardhana 2009-11-09 21:50:45 UTC
While testing glusterfs 3.0.0pre1 version observed an infinite loop of 
logging which occurs on the client side with messages logged for 
'client_forget_cbk'
