Description of problem: On a 8 node gluster cluster configured on rhel 6.7, tier volume status command times out most of the time. [root@dhcp37-191 ~]# gluster vol tier tier-volume-01 status Error : Request timed out Tier command failed [root@dhcp37-191 ~]# gluster vol set tier-volume-01 cluster.watermark-low 11 volume set: failed: Another transaction is in progress for tier-volume-01. Please try again after sometime. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): glusterfs-3.7.5-9.el6rhs.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure 8 node gluster cluster and run IO over night. (Overnight IO is to soak the system, tier vol status works fine for newly created volume) 2.

Given that this was raised on 6.7 and hasn't been so far reported in 7.x setup, will mark it as "wont fix". If QE sees this issue on 7.x, QE will reopen this bug.
