Given the verbose nature of bug, posting the main issue lately faced: Modify OLD Rename OLD NEW ==> Currently recorded as (bug!) MODIFY NEW RENAME NEW NEW.
Description of problem: When a file is moved from its original location to another directory, with the same name or with a different name, the change does not get captured in the output file. File rename at the same location does not get recorded as well. Do note that this issue is seen intermittently in a replica 3 volume. However on a replica 2 volume, every file movement (across directories) gets recorded as a MODIFY entry and a rename (also) gets recorded as a MODIFY entry (bug 1227691) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a replica 3 volume 'cross3' and a glusterfind session 2. Mount the volume over nfs/fuse and create 2 files 'test1' and 'test2' and a directory 'dir1' 3. Execute glusterfind pre and verify that 3 NEW entries are seen in the output file 4. Move the file 'test1' to dir1/test1 and run glusterfind pre and post 5. Output file shows a MODIFY entry for dir1/test1 6. Rename the file 'test2' to 'newtest2' and run glusterfind pre and post 7. Output file remains empty, without logging in any change 8. Move the file 'dir1/test1' to its original location, this time with a change in name. Run glusterfind pre and post 9. Output file again remains empty.

Delete Modify Entry and insert again So that MODIFY <NEW NAME> comes after RENAME. Default value of pgfids and basenames changed to "" instead of NULL Also fixed RENAME issue of displaying "RENAME <NEW NAME> <NEW NAME>". Also fixed RENAME followed by missing MODIFY Change-Id: I8202f6e6ec33f7bd921e71da38677f2ee2dab87a BUG: 1236270 Signed-off-by: Kotresh HR <khiremat> Signed-off-by: Milind Changire <mchangir> Reviewed-on: http://review.gluster.org/11443 Tested-by: Gluster Build System <jenkins.com> Reviewed-by: Aravinda VK <avishwan> Tested-by: NetBSD Build System <jenkins.org>
