Description Pranith Kumar K 2016-05-12 08:39:33 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1334566 +++

Description of problem:
I noticed that nagios was showing heal required in the BAGL test environment, but when I checked on node gprfc085, self heal was 0.

However, I ran the following 

for node in gprfc085 gprfc086 gprfc087; do pssh -P -t 60 -H $node 'date; gluster vol heal engine info ; sleep 1'; done

and could see that on node 85, self heal was 0 but the other two nodes show shards listed.

Trying to understand why...I did note that for some reason cluster.data-self-heal/entry-self-heal and meta

To date, this issue is ONLY against the 'engine' volume, which is sharded volume and has the hosted_engine vm running on node '86


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


How reproducible:
Each time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run vol heal commands on each node at around the same time
2. 
3.

Actual results:
1 node shows the volume is clean, the other 2 invariably report shards in the heal list.

Expected results:
I would expect all nodes to have the same view of heal state

Additional info:
output attached

Hi,

Just to understand basically : is this bug harmful to our data?

    cluster/afr: Handle non-zero source in heal-info decision
    
    Problem:
    Spurious entries are reported in heal info when the mount is on second/third
    brick of the replica pair because local-child is given preference in selecting
    source. The code is supposed to suggest the file needs heal if the (source < 0)
    (failure code path), but instead it is written as if any non-zero value
    is considered failure.
    
    Fix:
    Treat +ve source as success case

Not at all. It is just wrong reporting.

This bug is getting closed because a release has been made available that should address the reported issue. In case the problem is still not fixed with glusterfs-3.9.0, please open a new bug report.
