On a gluster volume with 100GB if we try to create a gluster-block of size 100GB with pre-allocation, block creation succeeds but it silently fails to allocate the correct sizes for the shards on the posix xlator. sh-4.2# du -sh .shard/* | awk '{print $1}' | sort | uniq -c 1 18M 1 26M 1597 64M Because of this when writes happen on a pre-allocated block device, writes fail with ENOSPC which shouldn't happen for preallocated files.
