+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1638333 +++

Description of problem:
After triggering the rebalance process, simultaneously, truncate command was passed on the mount point, rebalance completed successfully and truncate command did not throw any error, but on doing "# ll ." it was noticed that file size of many files was not truncated to zero as per the truncate command.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.12.2-22

How reproducible:
2/2

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a distributed-replicated volume (e.g. 3*3)

2. Start and mount the volume on client node.

3. Add brick to the volume using
# gluster v add-brick volname replica 3 brick10 brick11 brick12

4. From the client node create files on the mount point
e.g.
# for i in {1..8000}; do dd if=/dev/urandom of=file_$i bs=1M count=1; done

5. Trigger rebalance.

6. While rebalance is still in progress, start truncating the files from the mount point
e.g.
# for i in {1..8000}; do truncate -s 0 file_$i; done

7. Wait for the migration to complete.
	
8. Now from the mount point check the size of all the files.


Actual results:
File size for many files was not truncated to zero.

Expected results:
All the files should have size zero.

This needs to be fixed. No analysis done yet so no RCA.
