Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
=============================================================

glusterfs-3.7.5-0.3.el7rhgs.x86_64


How reproducible:
=================

Always


Steps to Reproduce:
===================
1. Create files from client using:
crefi --multi -n 10 -b 10 -d 10 --max=1024k --min=5k --random -T 5 -t text -I 5 --fop=create /mnt/fuse/
2. Once data creation is completed, create hardlinks of files using:
crefi --multi -n 10 -b 10 -d 10 --max=1024k --min=5k --random -T 5 -t text -I 5 --fop=hardlink /mnt/fuse/

Actual results:
===============

Hardlinks of files are created successfully from client, but the migration fails. 

Expected results:
=================

Migration should succeed for link files
