this is an internal xattr which only marker (disk usage accounting xlator) uses. The applications running on glusterfs shouldn't be seeing this. If you are seeing this xattr from mount, we should filter this xattr from being listed (at fuse-bridge and gfapi). > > It seems that there's also a 'trusted.glusterfs.quota.dirty' This is again an internal xattr.

This should be visible from mount point, as this xattr holds the value of quota limit set on that inode. You can handle this in disperse xlator by picking the value from any of its children. > > How I should handle visible xattrs in ec xlator if they have different > values in each brick ? > > trusted.glusterfs.quota.size is handled by choosing the maximum value. This depends on how ec is handling the files/directories and the meaning of xattr. For eg., trusted.glusterfs.quota.size represents the size of the file/directory. When read from brick, the value will be the size of directory on that brick. When read from a cluster translator like dht, it will be the size of that directory across the whole cluster. So, in dht we add up the values from all bricks and set the sum as the value. However, in case of replicate/afr, we just pick the value from any of the subvolume. > > Thanks, > > Xavi > _______________________________________________ Gluster-devel mailing list Gluster-devel@gluster.org http://supercolony.gluster.org/mailman/listinfo/gluster-devel
