Doc Type: Known Issue
Doc Text:
Cause: As the new geo-replication works in a distributed way, it is not possible to see the deletes Consequence: whenever geo-replication starts, it will miss the 'unlink' happened on master, thus not performing the delete on the slave side. Workaround (if any): None Result: This is an expected behavior with newer geo-replication.

Description Vijaykumar Koppad 2013-07-16 06:04:41 UTC 
Description of problem: The files which were removed on the master  when geo-rep was stopped, won't be removed from the slave, when geo-rep was started. Which is, first xsync crawl fails to propagate deletes to slave. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):3.4.0.12rhs.beta4-1.el6rhs.x86_64


How reproducible: Happens everytime.


Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create and start a geo-rep relationship between master(DIST-REP) and slave. 
2.Create files using the command, ./crefi.py -n 10 --multi -b 10 -d 10 --random --max=500K --min=10 <MNT_PNT>
3.Let it sync to slave.
4. Stop the geo-rep session,
5. remove all the files from master.
6. start the geo-rep session. 
7.Check if it is deleted on the  slave. 


Actual results: Deletes won't be propagated to slave.


Expected results: Deletes should propagate to slave.

The hybrid crawl cannot handle deletes, renames and harlinks. This is a known issue and is done this way as the gfid's are also in sync b/w master and slave.

The resolution should be  CLOSED WONTFIX , it can't be CLOSED NOTABUG.
