Hi
In our case the unify volume appears completly empty altough the
disks have data, also the server log shows some lines about activating
auto-heal but nothing happens, so we have build a script to populate
the namespace, in our case we have a folder that contains a subfolder
named 'namespace' and 6 subfolders named 1 to 6 where each one is a
brick of the unify volume, then running this on the main folder
populates the namespace and creates appropiate folders in all bricks:
#!/bin/bash
for disk in 1 2 3 4 5 6 ; do
for file in `find $disk`; do
rel=${file#*/}
if test -d $file ; then
mkdir -p namespace/$rel
for dsk in 1 2 3 4 5 6 ; do
mkdir -p $dsk/$rel
done
else
touch --reference=$file namespace/$rel
fi
done
done
Hi
We have a similar problem. Our file system became unusable for some
reason. It seems to me like GlusterFS believes that files are present on
some nodes when they really are not. I want to try to regenerate the
namespace from the data that is actually present on the nodes.
Does anyone have information about how that can be achieved? Somewhere I
read that:
Namespace does not hold any crucial data, it is just like a cache.
Infact you can wipe our your namespace anytime and it will rebuild again.
Thanks for your help

Hi
i have setup a unify volume using glusterfs 2.0.1 using several
disks with existing data, but once mounted in the remote client
the volume appears empty where it was suposed to auto-heal it's
contents automatically, is there any way to automatically
generate the namespace so existing data is visible to clients ?
