Forgot to move the bug status.
*** Bug 1144431 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I have tested the hotfix over RHGS 3.0.4 and that works well. I am not seeing any glusterd crash when running rebalance and 'gluster volume status' together I am moving this bug to VERIFIED state
SATHEESARAN, I have asked the customers again. At least 2 have NOT applied the Hotfix, but have asked if this patch was included in the RHGS 3.1 GA I believe 2 have applied the fix and not seen this issue reoccur. I will update this BZ with any answers I receive.
Sas, I agree to you, We should close the BZ #1235524 marking it "WONTFIX". Thanks, Bipin Kunal
