(In reply to Atin Mukherjee from comment #4) > upstream patch : https://review.gluster.org/16864 The above is abandoned now, the new patch set is https://review.gluster.org/#/c/16952/
1 Day and 1 round of testing has been performed over negative lookup cache. The bug below is encountered but it is yet not clear that nl.cache caused it to happen. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1444509 Need more testing to confirm.
Did one round of sanity along with multiple client testing scenarios, basic things seems to be working.
